Political cartoons are a powerful way to visually communicate society’s ideas and feelings on the current state of the world. While many political figures are often the target of satire and criticism there are certainly those we commend for having inspired change and progress.
Whether you agree with the artists’ political commentary or not, we think you’ll defintely like their creative abilities.
