This is exactly the kind of initiative we exist to support at Broken Frontier. In response to the genocide in Gaza UK cartoonists Rachael Ball and Krent Able have put together the Cartoonists for Gaza project, inviting comics creators and cartoonists to provide striking visual commentary on the crisis. The images will be posted to social media with the hashtag #cartoonistsforg4za. For more comics reading please check out our Palestine Resource List here at BF.
These are powerful, articulate and unforgettable cartoons and comics. There are many aid organisations you can donate to including the UNICEF Gaza Appeal, Medical Aid for Palestinians and the Disasters Emergency Committee, among others. (Click on individual images to expand view.)
UK Cartoonists Launch “Cartoonists for Gaza” to Respond to Humanitarian Crisis
London, August — UK cartoonists Rachael Ball and Krent Able have launched Cartoonists for Gaza, a new initiative uniting artists to respond to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza through the power of illustration.
The project called on the UK comics and cartooning community to create bold, thought-provoking images that protested violence, challenged silence, and aimed to raise public awareness.
“Cartoons have always been a powerful tool for dissent,” say the organisers. “In the age of social media, they can cut through the noise and reach audiences directly—amplifying community action and protest.”
Renowned creators including Martin Rowson, Rachael House, Kate Evans, The Rickard Sisters, Bryan Talbot, and Hannah Berry, along with many more from the UK, US, and Europe, have already signed up.
A selection of these images is being shared publicly, with more available under the hashtag #cartoonistsforg4za.
View more, follow and share #cartoonistsforg4za on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Bluesky to amplify their voices.
