ALL POLITICAL CARTOONS MUST: 4. Be on assigned topic (i.e. problems of city life) and use historical facts to make a point

ALL POLITICAL CARTOONS MUST: 5. Be professional! NO stick people. – Colored in or shaded, or include details!

ALL POLITICAL CARTOONS MUST: 6. Use literacy techniques (i.e. symbolism)
