Uncle Sam in Hawaii

The issue of this political cartoon is the defeat of Queen Liliuokalni. The message of thi cartoon is that America cannot be stopped. Some others might think that America is going too overboard with their power. The technique used in the cartoon is symbolism. Uncle Sam and Queen Liliuokalni sitting on a see-saw represents America’s victory due to the fact that Uncle Sam is heavier than Queen Liliuokalni which means America is more powerful. This cartoon does support my idea on no Anti-Imperialism. The cartoonist agrees with me that America cannot be sopped and is the reason why we are such a great country.
