EDITORS COMMENTS
The "Corruption Cartoon, 1916" is a powerful depiction of the deep-rooted corruption that plagued Chicago during this era. Created by Luther Daniels Bradley, this cartoon sheds light on the seemingly invincible alliance between the city's vice lords and corrupt politicians. In this thought-provoking image, we witness an unconventional representation of tanks rolling through the streets of Chicago. However, these tanks are not military machines; they symbolize the unyielding power wielded by those involved in political corruption. The artist cleverly portrays how this unholy union between vice lords and politicians has transformed the city into a battleground for illicit activities. The cartoon serves as a stark reminder that corruption knows no boundaries or limitations. It highlights how ordinary citizens become mere bystanders in their own city, overshadowed by crime and political malfeasance. The presence of tanks on North Street signifies that corruption has infiltrated every aspect of daily life. Bradley's artwork captures both outrage and despair felt by many at that time. It exposes the urgent need for political action to dismantle these alliances and restore integrity to Chicago's governance system. This historical artifact reminds us that corruption can thrive even in societies considered advanced or progressive. It prompts reflection on our own communities' vulnerabilities to similar issues today while emphasizing the importance of remaining vigilant against such abuses of power.
