American Imperialism Political Cartoons

Image
 This political cartoon illustrates American imperialism. The cards are representative of the American colonies acquired at the time. The cards are not just number cards, they are the highest ones in the deck, the most prestigious illustrating the impact/influence of these colonies and how America carefully chose them, aligning them in sequential order. The deck gives the viewer the impression that these colonies are at our disposal, to use at anytime we feel necessary, and that imperialism is merely just a game for the United States, it is a way to assert their dominance and prevent themselves from being taken over by other dominant powers in the world. The first thing that the viewer sees when they look at this political cartoon of American imperialism is the giant eagle with its over exaggerated wingspan. The eagle is a symbol for the United States and the abnormally large wings illustrate America's omnipresence. Their ability to have colonies all around the world. The...

Paraphrase Practice

Excerpt The question facing Lincoln is stark: Should he abolish slavery, once and for all, even if it means prolonging the war? The full weight and scale of this dilemma are the central lesson "Lincoln" asks up to grasp. The film places slavery at the center of the story, emphatically countering the revisionist tendency to see some other, more abstract thing -- states' rights, Southern culture, industrial capitalism -- as the real cause of the Civil War. Though most of the characters are white (two notable and vital exceptions are Stephen Henderson and Gloria Reuben, as the Lincolns' household servants), this is finally a movie about how difficult and costly it has been for the United States to recognize the full and equal humanity of black people.

Funeral for JFK President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 during his presidential campaign through Texas for re-election. JFKlibrary.org wrote that they were to depart on a "two-day, five-city tour of Texas." JFK and Mrs. Kennedy were riding through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas with Governor John Connally and Nellie, his wife when "gunfire suddenly reverberated in the plaza." Both the governor and the president were shot, the governor in the chest while the president took two bullets to his neck and head. President Kennedy was buried at Arlington Cemetery on November 25, 1963 where Mrs. Kennedy, and his brothers, Robert and Edward "lit an eternal flame." Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested for the assassination of President Kennedy and the shooting of Governor Connally, and would later be shot at point blank range by a local night club owner the day of his transferral from the police station to the county jail. People today are still...
