Hi Kerrie! I got your email message. Thank you for volunteering to post our completed Venn Diagram. I am going to post my thoughts about two cartoons shortly.

Nicole Kline's thoughts:

__**Welcome to All:**__


 * Joseph Keppler


 * peaceful and welcoming


 * Uncle Sam is on the Refuge Ark and is welcoming immigrants that are surrounded by war


 * claiming no taxes, no kings, everyone is welcome!

Kerrie's thoughts:
 * welcome to all is only welcoming white european immigrants
 * Uncle Sam is offering free education, free land, free speech, free ballot, and free lunch
 * the clouds have "war" written above them and are dark

__**Where Both Platforms Agree:**__


 * J.A. Wales


 * very violent--nailing Chinese man to an "anti-chinese" plank


 * showing violence and discrimination


 * could be encouraging the start of war with China by the mistreatment of a Chinese man

Kerrie's thoughts:
 * one plank represents the republican party and the other plank represents the democratic party
 * implying that he votes of chinese immigrants are not valued by either party
 * symbolic of the american desire to restrict chinese immigration


 * SIMILARITIES:**


 * 1880 is when the images were created


 * both published in PUCK magazine

Kerrie's addition:
 * both tell a story about the treament of immigrants


 * Nicole, let me know what you think of my additions and if you have anythings else to add!!

I had a really hard time finding information explaining what these cartoons meant. I was finally able to get them to load on LOC website. Many of the other links in the module were not working for me. So I do not have any other resources. Kerrie: A great teaching resource I found for teaching about US immigration from 1880-1914 is: []

Kerrie--I think it looks great! Are you sure you are okay with compiling it all to the Venn Diagram?
