"Berryman: A Cartoonist's Perspective on American History" Clifford Berryman, an influential American cartoonist, captured the essence of pivotal moments in US history through his thought-provoking illustrations. In one of his iconic cartoons from 1909, President Theodore Roosevelt fearlessly takes on powerful trusts that he believed were detrimental to the public interest while simultaneously supporting those businesses that contributed positively to the nation. Fast forward to 1935, and Berryman's creativity shines again as he depicts the New Deal Remedies in another captivating cartoon. This time, he offers a critical view of President Roosevelt's spending policies during this era of economic recovery. But Berryman's artistic prowess was not limited to political satire alone. He also delved into other subjects like Jamaican culture with William Berryman's "Woman beating cassava. " This artwork showcases the rich heritage and traditions of Jamaica during the early 19th century. Switching gears once more, Norm Berryman and Bryan Redpath take center stage in their respective fields - sportsmanship and bravery. Their names echo alongside prestigious accolades such as Victoria Cross for gallantry awarded by Britain in 1857. Returning to politics, Clifford K. Berryman masterfully captures the Democratic donkey kicking up a storm against President Roosevelt's Supreme Court reform plan in 1937. The intensity depicted conveys both opposition and controversy surrounding this significant event. As World War II loomed closer, Berryman continued using his talent to shed light on pressing issues through poignant cartoons like those from 1938 which addressed both war-related concerns and aspects of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal programs. One cannot overlook Clifford Berryman’s portrayal of President Roosevelt’s National Recovery Act (NRA) implemented in 1933 – a program aimed at fostering cooperation between employers and employees during challenging times. His artistry effectively conveyed the spirit behind this initiative while capturing its impact on society.
