  1. The second cartoon caught my eye. It describes Africas past and present. It is trying to tell us that many people in africa are suffering from many different causes. They need help!!

  3. I thought the third cartoon was the most meaningful out of all of them. I think that it shows how Africa is being exploited by richer countries that have the power to control it. The author did a good job of describing how Africa has been used.

  4. The last cartoon is very interesting. It shows the way that the risher people were treated better and the less fortunate people had to be like slaves. The cartoon is making a good point but excagerating a little bit on the harshness.

  7. i think the middle cartoon message was everyone wanted a piece of africa to themselves. i think this cartoon shows how every country wanted a piece of the new exploration and it describes how people fought for africa
