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.

- <em>An oil spill off the California coast in 1969 coated 400 square miles with slime and killed hundreds of birds. Scientists announced that auto exhaust was at high enough levels in some places that it could cause birth defects. The city of St. Louis smelled, as one resident put it, “like an old-fashioned drugstore on fire.”</em>

Nixon's administration felt it necessary to take action to address pollution problems in the American environment.
