Read the following paragraph from the article, Racist stereotypes found their way
into the medium because comic
book artists often relied on what
they saw in movie and TV Westerns,
Francis said. Before Westerns,
political cartoons dating to the
1700s demonized and ridiculed
Native people, Stereotypes are
oversimplified or too-generalized
ways of looking at people or their
races
Which idea is BEST supported by this paragraph?

Incomplete question since it lacks options. However, I inferred generally from the passage.

Native characters were not represented well in the past

Explanation:

In fact, there were visible sterotypes ( oversimplified or too-generalized  depiction of Native people) in comic cartoons drawn by comic book artists. Furthermore, the article compares what happened in the past during the 1700s in political cartoons in which the  Natives were demonized and ridiculed  with what was occuring now; a period having widespread availability of comic books.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
