Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Political cartoon shows two dogs, one dog with a black person's head labeled "negro labor", and another dog with a white person's head labeled "white labor", which are fighting over a bare bone. At the same time, while the two dogs fight over the scrap, another dog labeled "capital" slyly eats a whole leg of ham below them which is labeled "profits". The caption on the cartoon reads: "Drop that bone and get the ham! You are just working dogs!" The political cartoon is from The Messenger magazine (December 1919) which was important to the flowering of the Harlem Renaissance.
