School Begins
1899 political Cartoon published in Puck magazine
Quoted from http://praxisandcapital.tumblr.com/post/9576008695/zuky-this-1899-cartoon-published-in-puck
"This 1899 cartoon published in Puck magazine depicts Uncle Sam menacingly waving a stick at children labeled Philippines, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Cuba, as well as a Native American boy next to the door holding a book upside down, a Chinese boy outside the door, and a Black boy washing the window. The original caption reads:
School Begins. Uncle Sam (to his new class in Civilization): Now, children, you’ve got to learn these lessons whether you want to or not! But just take a look at the class ahead of you, and remember that, in a little while, you will feel as glad to be here as they are!
The blackboard reads:
The consent of the governed is a good thing in theory, but very rare in fact. — England has governed her colonies whether they consented or not. By not waiting for their consent she has greatly advanced the world’s civilization. — The U.S. must govern its new territories with or without their consent until they can govern themselves."
Louis Dalrymple
