Answer:

The correct answer is: African American

Explanation:

The most prominent issue in U.S. politics in the mid-1950s and during the 1960s was the struggle of blacks to end segregation and secure all their rights as citizens.

They sought the protection of the courts. However, many Southern states attempted to circumvent these rulings.

Despite progress in some states, racial integration was slow in the South. Meanwhile, many african american began to take an active part in the civil rights movement.

During the 1950s, being born black in the United States meant being born condemned to an ancestral system of discrimination, originated four centuries ago with the slave trade from Africa, and later perpetuated in the cotton plantations of the southern states.

By the mid-20th century, although slavery had disappeared a century ago, most blacks had access only to bonded labor and lived confined to the slums of southern cities.

Answer:

B) native citizens' fear that Chinese immigration would mean fewer jobs for the native population

Explanation:

<u>The cartoon in question dates from 1880. and is called "The Tables Turned". </u>

The Chinese population began to immigrate to the US in the 1850s. They first started doing physical labor, but soon after started their works and entrepreneurship.

<u>This wasn't welcomed by the population living in the US. They have feared this would affect their economy and that the Chinese population would take their jobs.</u>

The name of the cartoon "The Tables Turned" refers to the fact that, in the cartoon, those who were on the continent for a longer time, had no jobs, and how the economy and work has been taken over by the incoming Chinese population. The jobs aren't only manual jobs, but also jobs for women (who are looking displeased in the cartoon) such as nursing jobs, laundries, offices, etc. The cartoon shows the fear, but also hostility towards newcomers.

This attitude depicted in the cartoon resulted in the Chinese Exclusion Acts that limited the immigration of Chinese workers in the US.
