Ответ:
Just from reading your description, the answer could be either (b) or (c). But I looked up a copy of the actual cartoon online, and if you see the actual drawing, you'll see that the Catholic, alcoholic, and communist "immigrants" are depicted as looking like monsters. I also found out, in a caption to the cartoon, that it was published in a pro-KuKluxKlan book. Those facts indicate that the cartoon is anti-immigration and racist, so the answer is (C).
