As many flooded the streets and airports to protest, Starbucks said it will hire 10,000 refugees over the next five years and Airbnb offered free housing to immigrants. Many made good use of social media, art and satire to vent out their anger.

Here are some of the best cartoons following Trump’s travel ban.

The satirical cartoons also show that amid the chaos and frustrations, Americans have not lost all hope. People are speaking out against Trump’s policies with a flurry of protest messages on Twitter using the #NoBanNoWall hashtag.
