One of my favorite illustrators, Emily McDowell, created this illustration out of words written by author Amy Ferris. Though I usually don’t write about politics, I thought this was a strong and effective statement that just had to be shared.
“The brilliant Amy Ferris wrote this, and I illustrated it. As a woman, I don’t support Hillary just because she’s female (as many people like to argue). I support her because she and her platform treat women like human beings, unlike the alternative.
“I’m having iron-ons (and possibly stickers) of this design made & will be selling them on emilymcdowell.com in the coming weeks. All proceeds will be donated to the effort to elect Hillary Clinton.
“I understand that the system is flawed. I understand that people are angry and I understand why many people want change. But please, not this platform of hate and fear. Trump is not the answer. #imwithher”
Over on Ferris’s Facebook page it’s written:
” we will rise
we will stand up
we will show up
we will show them
we will make a ruckus
we will be seen
we will be heard
we will win
we got this one.”
