Answer:

The civil rights movement

Explanation:

The civil rights movement took place in the 1950s in America. People were protesting and marching against segregation and the Jim Crow Laws against African America. The movement brought the nation’s attention to the injustice, cruelty toward them based on their colour. The civil rights movement helped African American to achieve their rights in America in the 1950s and 1960s to break the prevailing pattern of segregation.

Martin Luther King Jr. was a leader in the Civil Rights Movement for the African-Americans. Harriet Tubman,  Rosa Parks, Sojourner Truth, and W.E.B. Du Bois were some of the other activists in the civil rights movement.

Whom do the two men seated at the table represent? What does this cartoon suggest about American attitudes toward immigration in
Rama09 [41]

These two men seated at the table represent the Irish , with top hat and vest, and German (smoking pipe and drinking german beer) inmigrants in the 1800s in the US. The cartoon refers to the 1882's Chinese Exclusion Act, which was the first American law preventing the inmigration of an specific ethnic/national group. This can be apreciated in the "New Declaration of indepence" at the back of the cartoon.

The legend in the bottom ("If the Yankee Congress can keep the yellow man out, what is to hinder them from calling us green and keeping us out too?") refers to the raising fear in Irish and German groups of facing the same fate of Chinese inmigrants. This let us know American attitude towards inmigrants who weren't seen as equals and were discrimitated for their origins and skin color.
