Perhaps you, like me, were raised essentially to think of the slave experience primarily in terms of our black ancestors here in the United States. In other words, slavery was primarily about us, right, from Crispus Attucks and Phillis Wheatley, Benjamin Banneker and Richard Allen, all the way to Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth and Frederick Douglass. Think of this as an instance of what we might think of as African-American exceptionalism. (In other words, if it’s in “the black Experience,” it’s got to be about black Americans.) Well, think again.

What human institution or human weakness is satirized in this piece?

The cartoon satirizes how humans tend to criticize others' problems more than their own. This is done through the device of humor known as irony.

<h3>How can we come to this conclusion?</h3>

The artist shows a bird that was annoyed by the creaking of a door.
The artist shows that the bird has chicks that make more noise than the creaking door, but he ignores it.
The bird does not control the chicks but wants the owner of the fence to control the noise it makes

The artist uses irony to show a different conclusion from what the audience is expecting. This is because, on the one hand, the public expects the bird to control its extremely noisy chicks. However, the bird leaves its chicks making noise and starts complaining about the noise of the neighbor's fence door.

It is important to emphasize that irony is the device that promotes unpredictability, showing elements different from what would be obvious.
