UAW-CIO Cartoons

 "The United Automobile Workers-CIO commissioned this film to ease ethnic tensions at the union's integrated southern branches" -taken from youtube description.

1946 Brotherhood of Man cartoons!

I found these cartoons last night that were actually made by the UAW-CIO addressing the new "neighbors" that a white man could expect to have after the war! It's blatant stereotypes are really interesting to see as a cartoon, especially as it was critically acclaimed at the time it came out. This video is the first of a series. But shows the worries of white communities who were diversified after WWII.
