Question

Which factor contributed most to the issue depicted in this cartoon?

A. The rise of racial tensions in the West
B. Declining profits for railroad companies
C. Increased concerns about radicalism among immigrants
D. Decreased support for expanding trade into Asia

Answer 1

Answer: I would say C, but A is also possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cartoon was published by Franklin Leslie in 1882, about the Chinese Exclusion Act. You can see "but no admittance to chinamen" on the sign, which is racist, but is more related to immigration.

Answer 2

The answer is c . Increased concern about radicalism among immigrants.
