Answer:
Slavery and racism still exist, and it's even worse than before the civil war.
Explanation:
The Cartoonist illustrated a White League handshakes with Ku Klux Klan a shield that illustrates a black couple weeping over their baby.
In the background, it depicts the burning of school house and a freedman who was hanged on a tree.
"Worse than Slavery," was written boldly on the shield, and the combined text reads: "The Union as It Was: This Is a White Man's Government."
Hence, the message the cartoonist is trying to express about life after the civil war especially for African Americans is that: Slavery and racism still exist, and it's even worse than before the civil war.
