Political Cartoon #1/ Little Red Riding Hood

I drew a political cartoon dealing with support for the anti federalist movement. I chose to use Little Red Riding Hood because she represents the anti-federalist’s push for state’s rights. The basket is used to represent states rights, and the baked goods inside the basket are individual states. Little Red Riding Hood’s grandma can be considered the U.S. populous. In the background, behind a tree (meaning deception), there are two federalists; James Madison and Alexander Hamilton. They represent the wolf that is trying to steal the liberty that the state’s fought for in order to form a strong central government.
