All Rise: Resistance, Rebellion, and Revolt in South Africa is an imaginative four-part graphic history series, based on little-known court records. It, that revives stories of resistance by marginalized South Africans against the colonial and apartheid governments. The first volume, which spans the 'Union period' of 1910-48 consists of six stories, all researched and written by historian Richard Conyngham and each illustrated by a different South African artist. The stories in All Rise combine a variety of universal issues related to justice and human rights with a refreshing narrative medium. Based on painstaking research, the work already completed has received glowing endorsements from a list of lawyers, judges, academics, activists and graphic history authors. The impact of the project is twofold: elevating the profile of diverse South African illustrators and providing a lasting, reliable, accessible resource for readers of history both at home and abroad.
