EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph by Thomas Nast from the late 19th century is a scathing critique of American anti-Chinese immigration policies of the time. Titled "E Pluribus Unum (except Chinese)," the cartoon depicts a scene where immigrants from various countries are welcomed with open arms into America, except for the Chinese passengers who are turned away. The phrase "E Pluribus Unum," meaning "Out of many, one," is ironically juxtaposed with the exclusion of Chinese immigrants, highlighting the hypocrisy and discrimination present in American society.
Nast's illustration captures the xenophobic attitudes prevalent during this period, as anti-Chinese sentiment grew due to fears of job competition and cultural differences. The image of a boat filled with hopeful immigrants being denied entry solely based on their ethnicity serves as a poignant reminder of America's history of exclusion and prejudice towards certain groups.
Despite being created over a century ago, this cartoon remains relevant today as debates around immigration policy and racial discrimination continue to shape our society. It serves as a stark reminder that inclusivity and acceptance should be at the core of American values, challenging us to reflect on how far we have come in addressing these issues.
