Also published in the Washington Bee, this August 1919 cartoon denounced the decision of the Illinois state’s attorney to only indict African Americans (many of whom had defended themselves against mob attacks) after Chicago’s 1919 race riot. Evidence of white crimes against blacks collected by the NAACP led the grand jury in Chicago to go “on strike” until the state’s attorney presented cases against white defendants, an action also referenced by the cartoon - See



This cartoon, published in the Washington Bee, a black weekly, highlighted a major problem during a riot in the nation’s capital in July 1919: police failed to stop white mobs from attacking African Americans. “Oh! Why don’t you stop them?” the woman on the right asks. “Ha, ha. That’s what I would like to know,” the officer replies. According to another Washington, D.C., newspaper, a police officer actually said this to an observer during the riot.
