IntroductionFor decades, political cartoons have proven to be effective, powerful learning tools that engage audiences of allbackgrounds and ages. They provide concise, humorous (or heart-tugging), quick-witted snapshots of all kinds ofissues—from politics and law to education and general humanitarian efforts. We have developed this publication in thehope that those on the “front line” of education will incorporate it into daily discussions with students on “theissues”—to spark debates, critical thinking, and comprehensive, careful analysis of events happening in the worldaround us.The positions expressed in these cartoons are not necessarily the position of CLREP or our staff. All cartoons in thispublication are re-printed with the express written permission of Cagle Cartoons. If you wish to access additionalpolitical cartoons, we encourage you to visit www.politicalcartoons.com — a comprehensive website that includeslesson plans and classroom resources on a wide array of subjects.Table of ContentsAnalyzing Political Cartoons(Student Worksheet)3Monsters Under the BedTsunami, War, Recent Events (2004-2005)42Fast InfluenceMovies, Teens, Fast Driving5Fast FoodFast Food Lawsuits, “Overweight America”6Cell PhonesDriving Irresponsibly, Cell Phones7Hollywood MessageMedia Influence, Weapons of Mass Destruction8Network ProgrammingTeens, Computers, Hacking9Law School Diversity“Overweight America”, Smoking, Lawsuits10More SoapCensorship, Media11Assault Weapons BanNRA, Supreme Court, Weapons Ban12God OathsFreedom of Religion, Separation of Church-State13Pledge to Who?Pledge of Allegiance, Religion14Diagram of a LiberalLiberal, John Kerry, “Left Wing”15Halloween Costume PartyAge of Supreme Court Justices16Iraqi Ballot BoxBush, Iraq Elections17I Hate Them TooAmericans, Cultures, Attitudes18Liberty SkirtPrivacy, Government19Supremes on Affirmative ActionAffirmative Action, Supreme Court, quotas20Violence in SchoolsGuns, violence, schools21Juvenile ExecutionsDeath penalty, juveniles22Silent TreatmentPrivacy, Right to Remain Silent23You Are So GroundedPresident Clinton,2President Bush, broken world24
