Question

What message is the cartoonist trying to express about life after the civil war especially for the african americans

Answer 1

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.
