POLITICAL CARTOON
Because there is so little space for an editorial cartoon to make an impact, the cartoonist often uses symbols or
allusions as shorthand for the meaning of cartoons. In the bubble map above, think of some symbols or allusions
associated with your topic.

A symbol is an object that represents or stands for something else.

An allusion is a brief reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance.
