dc.description.abstractWhile political cartoons have a reputation for upholding the tenants of democracy and freedom, the editorial images of the late 19th century and early 20th century show quite the contrary. In fact, they promote elements of early American life such as racism, misogyny and anti-radicalism, and make negative statements about the aspects of society that did not conform to conservative White Anglo-Saxon Protestantism.en_US
