What message is the illustrator conveying in the political cartoon?

History

Andrei [34K]3 years ago
6 0

The message being conveyed is that <em>A</em><em>. Literacy tests conflicted</em><em> with </em><em>America's ideals</em><em> of </em><em>liberty </em><em>because they were designed to keep immigrants out of the country. </em>

In the late 1800s, there were calls amongst some Americans to limit immigration because:

  • unemployment was rising
  • crops were failing
  • there was land shortage

These people managed to get the government to implement literacy tests and immigrants who failed it would not be allowed in.

The cartoonist in this cartoon is criticizing it by putting the literacy tests as a wall which gives it a negative connotation because walls are generally used to denote progress being stopped.

We can therefore conclude that the illustrator here believes that literacy tests are negative and most probably conflict with American ideals such as liberty.

Which privacy night is protected by Supreme Court decisions in Griswold v. Connecticut and Roe v. Wade?
Leto [7]

The right to be left alone is protected by the Supreme Court decisions in Griswold v Connecticut and Roe v Wade.

the right to be left alone

<u>Explanation:</u>

The judgment of the Supreme Court in Griswold v Connecticut case slackened the law that prohibited birth control. Birth control was considered illegal under the law in the state of Connecticut from the 1800s. The issue didn’t make it to the court till 1965.  

The court decided that the prohibition of birth control wouldn’t remain valid anymore its 1965 judgment. The verdict ensured a person’s right to privacy by finding out that the birth control prohibition law violated a person’s right to marital privacy.

In the Roe v Wade case of 1973 the court ruled that a pregnant woman had the liberty to choose to have an abortion and there wouldn’t be excessive government restriction on that liberty. The decisions of the Supreme Court safeguarded the right to privacy of the people.
