From the lecture about the Native Americans, this Betty Bob cartoon depicts the natives in a very negative way. Based in the fallowing list of tropes, just write how Betty Boop is personified and the natives in the cartoon using the list I’ve provided. For example
Betty Boop
Personified as a Human, etc.
Native Americans
Personified as animals, etc.
