Panama Canal

This cartoon is about the Panama Canal. I know this because it says Panama at the bottom of the boat.The cartoonist's message is that Roosevelt will hurt anyone who comes in his way. I know this because he has many guns on him. Another opinion may be that Roosevelt came to resupply the Panamanians with guns. I know this becasue he has many guns with him. One technique is labeling and I say this because the bridge to come off the boat says Monroe Doctrine and Panamanians had flags with sayings. Another technique is exaggeration and I say this because Roosevelt has many guns and is over sized. This cartoon doesn't support my view of imperialism because it is negative. I say this because Roosevelt has many guns and will do whatever to get his way.
