Historically, political cartoons expressed, shaped, reinforced, and reflected social, political, and racial attitudes, social conditions, and class structure. Therefore, some newspapers used cartoons as propaganda to shape public opinion. As mirrors to public knowledge, cartoons showed what the public knew about events and scandals. Because even illiterate people could understand the cartoons, some politicians feared them more than print editorials. Cartoons illustrated how public figures and racial groups looked. In the 1800s, due to the pervasive racist attitudes at the time, non-Caucasion people would often be drawn with exaggerated physical features, such as large lips and nappy hair. Racist cartoons propagated negative stereotypes and implied that non-Caucasian people were primitive. On the U.S. mainland, some of the newspapers and magazines drew Queen Liliuokalani, the last reigning monarch of Hawaii, with features including feathers in her hair, nappy hair, thick lips, and bare feet, illustrating her as a primitive woman. The following cartoon portrays the queen as a dark-skinned, underdressed woman with thick lips who tries to give her crown to a pawnbroker for cash. Text: "LILIUOKALINA [sic]---How much can you lend me on this Honolulu crown? "PAWNBROKER---I might have let you have a few sandwiches a month ago, but it isn't worth a wisp of hay now."

Uncle Sam in Hawaii" The evening world, November 14, 1893, BROOKLYN LAST EDITION, Image 1 http://chroniclingamerica.com/lccn/sn83030193/1893-11-14/ed-3/seq-1/ In the late 1890s, the United States was determining whether to annex Hawaii and other territories including Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. American political cartoons often illustrated the concept of manifest destiny, or America's geopolitical expansion through colonization. Some cartoons would draw the United States as Uncle Sam and the territories considered for annexation as children, as if the United States was their warden. The children would often be drawn with dark skin and sometimes with grass skirts, nappy hair, or bare feet. Here, Uncle Sam, a personification of the United States, holds a knife, apparently about to cut a chicken. He asks, "Who'll get the wishbone?" to the two children, as they represent Cuba and Hawaii respectively. At the time of publication, the United States considered annexing them during the Spanish-American War. Text: "Who'll get the wish-bone? -The Journal, New York."

Caption text: "Pele Awakes Uncle Sam:--Wake up Madam! Its time to celebrate. Fair Hawaii is annexed and its the Fourth of July Madam Pele:--You caught me while I was napping, Sammy, but its down one so here goes."

In 1899 was the Philippine-American War, and the United States would eventually annex the Philippines in 1901. Left image: A woman (apparently Uncle Sam's "daughter") personifying Hawaii with a cornucopia by her and the scene of Diamond Head, the Pacific Ocean, and the sun hovering at the horizon with the word "prosperity." Right image: Personifying the United States, Uncle Sam looks at the "Hawaiian Report," which says "peace and prosperity," "loyalty," "thriving industries," "increasing commerce," and "fine climate." In the back of him is a "report from the Filipines" saying to "send more soldiers." Caption text: "Uncle Sam:--Blam in Gilead! Well, thank heavens both my new daughters haven't got the same disposition."

Two years after this cartoon's publication, at the end of the Philippine-American War, Aguinaldo would surrender control of the Philippines to the United States, which then annexed the country. Text: "Uncle Sam:--He's a son of a gun at dodging, and he's not worth much when you've got him: but I'll GIT him if it takes all summer."

In the picture below, Kuhio shouts about political issues on a soap box. When "Duty" asks a citizen, "Have you registered?" he responds apathetically while yawning, "Oh there's plenty of time." Kuhio could not vote on issues presented in Congress. Hawaii did not have a vote, as it was not a U.S. state yet. Text: "How about it, Mr. Good Citizen?" The Hawaiian gazette, April 05, 1912, Image 1 http://chroniclingamerica.com/lccn/sn83025121/1912-04-05/ed-1/seq-1/ With a tag that says, "Delegate for Sale," Kuhio stands by the box for the convention secret ballots.

Text in the article that accompanies the cartoon: "Just how circumstances may alter cases and how politicians may be one thing one day and quite another thing the next is shown by a very interesting document ... " I'm Kuhio, of whom you've heard; At changing my mind I'm sure one bird I came to Hawaii, Taft to kill, But now I'm a shouter for Our Big Bill. Ex-Campaign Manager-- Oh, Charley McCarthy is my name, As a backer of Link I won great fame-- Now they've got Link down, and so you see I've launched a boon for to nominate Me. It makes no different what we say, For to change our minds only takes a day. To swallow your words can be no sin If only you swallow them down to win.

For example, the illustration below makes fun of the Anti-Saloon League and the Women's Christian Temperance Union's campaign against the producers and sellers of beers in Hawaii. The woman from the W.C.T.U. pumps in water to a man labeled as "Honolulu Brewery," for a "water cure for brewery." In the background, seven people pump pressure to the water hose.

The caption reads: We draw the line at this. Our good natured country may allow this administration to give our market to England, to sell our embassies, to Anglomaniac dudes, and cause the reduction of wages to the European standard. But... This is discussing how the Hawaiian government was scandal ridden and overthrown by wealthy sugar plantations . The Hawaiian government is no longer run by native Hawaiians, but by wealthy immigrants. Liliuokalani only appears to be in control, however, the soldiers bayonets are keeping her power in check. Her dishevelment also signifies the Hawaiians loss of wealth in their own country. Now only sugar plantation owners profit.

Also see: https://www.flickr.com/photos/uhmlibrary/7503158062 and History 110 - Dr. Gayle Olson-Raymer A Chronology of American Imperialism in the Hawaiian Islands 1830s Presbyterian and Congregational missionaries founded schools to Christianize and Americanize the Hawaiians. As more Americans arrived, disease significantly diminished the native Hawaiian population. With less labor for the sugar industry, American settlers imported Chinese and Japanese workers, thus building a multi-racial society over which the Hawaiians were gradually losing control. 1874 David Kalakaua became King of Hawaii. An an intent nationalist, the King worked hard to maintain Hawaiian sovereignty. (See video on the early history at http://ca.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/ha06.ush.ind.bayonet/the-bayonet-constitution/) 1875 The King signed the Treaty of Reciprocity between the US and Kingdom of Hawaii. The treaty gave tax free access to the United States market for sugar and other products grown in Hawaii. e. The treaty led to large investment by Americans in sugar plantations in Hawaii. 1885 Almost all Hawaiian sugar plantations were in control of the Americans, most of whom were the ancestors of the early missionaries. The planters began to demand a greater role in Hawaiian politics. 1887 The U.S. an Hawaii renewed the sugar treaty and Hawaii granted "... to the Government of the US the exclusive right to enter the harbor of Pearl River, in the Island of Oahu, and to establish and maintain there a coaling and repair station for the use of vessels of the US and to that end the US may improve the entrance to said harbor and do all things useful to the purpose aforesaid."
1889 A young part-Hawaiian named Robert W. Wilcox staged an uprising to overthrow the 1887 Constitution. He led some 80 men, Hawaiians and Europeans in a predawn march to Iolani Palace with a new constitution for Kalakaua to sign. The king was away from the palace, and the Cabinet called out troops who forcibly put down the insurrection. Tried for conspiracy, Wilcox was found not guilty by a jury of Native Hawaiians, who considered him a folk hero. 1890 The McKinley Tariff Act eliminated Hawaii's tax free sugar trading status. Domestic US sugar growers were also given a bounty of 2 cents a pound so they could sell at lower prices than Hawaiian and other foreign growers. Hawaiian sugar prices plunged 40%. Americans in Hawaii began pressing for annexation to classify their sugar as domestic rather than foreign. (Americans owned about 3/4 of the island's wealth, while representing less than 10% of the population.) 1891 King Kalakaua died and his sister, Liliuokalani, assumed the throne. 1892 Queen Liliuokalani announced that she was planning a new constitution that would give her more discretionary powers to help her fight the American planters. (See videos "Hawaii's Last Queen, Part 5 at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1G5DVF0u2OE and Part 6 at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WjQwC0h7yM ) 1893 In January, American and European resident merchants forced the Queen from power and proclaimed a provisional government under the leadership of pineapple entrepreneur Sanford B. Dole. During the overthrow, the American Minister to Hawaii, John L. Stevens, ordered the landing of armed U.S. Marines from the USS Boston in Honolulu which he said was necessary to protect lives and property. The Provisional Government of Hawaii immediately sent a treaty of annexation to President Benjamin Harrison who referred it to the Senate for ratification on February 15, 1893. Three weeks later, Grover Cleveland, became President and soon thereafter withdrew the treaty and appointed former congressman James Henderson Blount as special representative to investigate the events surrounding the overthrow. 1894 On July 4, Sanford Dole announced the creation of the Republic of Hawaii and declared himself president. Many Hawaiians gathered arms for a counterrevolution to restore the monarchy. 1895 In January, an insurrection began to try to restore the Queen; after 10 days of fighting, most of the rebels were captured. The Queen was arrested and imprisoned on January 16th. She was tried, found guilty, and given the maximum sentence of five years imprisonment at hard labor and a $5,000 fine. While the sentence was not carried out, she remained a prisoner in the palace. (See Hawaii's Last Queen, Part 7 at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFms1Qe4u54) 1898 Hawaiians submitted a petition to Congress with 29,000 signatures opposing annexation and asking that annexation be put to a public vote. They were never permitted to vote on the issue. President McKinley signed a treaty to annex Hawaii, but it failed in the Senate after receiving 38,000 Hawaiian signatures opposing annexation. (International Law requires annexation to be accomplished via a treaty.) On July 4, the U.S. Congress approved annexation. On July 4, the U.S. Congress approved annexation of Hawaii via a joint resolution. 1959 On August 21, Hawaii joined the US and became the 50th state. 1993 Congress passed and the President signed an Apology Resolution apologizing for the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii a century before.

Image Gallery Queen Liliuokalani Of Hawaii Political CartoonRelated Posts To Queen Liliuokalani Of Hawaii Political CartoonHawaiiHawaii was a valuable region, for it was a great provisioning point, and a huge producer of cane sugar. As a result, many American planters wanted to annex Hawaii when the McKinley tariff raised prices of sugar. However, Queen Liliuokalani, who is depicted as a pear tree in the political cartoon, disagreed with annexation, and wanted the Hawaiians to retain control over the island. A revolt ensued, and the American minister of Honolulu, who is the monkey in the picture, assisted the revolt with troops. He even says, "The Hawaiian pear is now fully ripe" in his letter to Washington. Also, this is why Hawaii is depicted as a pear in this picture. Fortunately for Hawaii, President Grover Cleveland, who is the man standing in front of the pear tree, opposed the annexation, therefore protecting Hawaii. |
