Synopsis

Angelo Lopez has created some of the most unique political cartoons of the past decade. His book "Making America Great Again" collects Angelo's editorial cartoons from The Cartoon Movement and the Philippines Today from years 2016 to 2017, and read the commentary on the rise of Donald Trump, white nationalism, and the Alt Right. Listen to what some of his editorial cartoonist peers have said about his work. "I love the cartoons of Angelo Lopez. They are powerful and dramatic, drawn in a unique, engaging style that is pulls from both mid-20th Century social realism and from children's art, and usually dealing with issues of importance such as the overlooked and downtrodden or the abuse of power by the forces of oppression. It's no wonder his work keeps winning awards" - STEVE GREENBERG Editorial Cartoonist for the Ventura County Reporter. "Lopez's gift is the ability to remind us of our indispensable moral truths. He relentlessly defends the little guy in his pursuit of social justice. And through it all Lopez illustrates his message with forceful concepts rendered in distinctively vintage black-and-white style." - ADAM ZYGLIS Editorial Cartoonist for The Buffalo News "Although the history between the U.S. and the Philippines goes back over a century, the relationship between the two countries is often overlooked in the American press. Angelo’s sharp and beautifully rendered cartoons combine an uncommon perspective with exceptional journalism, and give voice to the voiceless in this country and abroad. This collection of his best cartoons from 2016-2017, which cover the elections of Donald Trump and Rodrigo Duterte, provide a powerful account of a pivotal moment for democracy in the U.S. and the Philippines." - DAN NOTT Cartoonist "With a bold hand and dynamic eye, Angelo’s art reflects a big, big heart with deep compassion for all life, acutely responsive to struggles against malicious or unconscious institutional, political and economic power. Truly he has a powerful voice!" - RUSSELL HODIN Editorial Cartoonist for the San Luis Obispo New Times
