    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This is a cartoon depicting contemporary attitudes on American servicemen having sex with Japanese women and/or attempting to bring them to the U.S. as wives.  The title of the cartoon is &quot;Bon Homme Willie,&quot; and the author is listed in the top right corner with a note, &quot;--By Hall.&quot; To the left of the cartoon stands a stern man, frowning in profile with hands on his hips and in an officer&#039;s hat. He is looking at a young naval serviceman in uniform holding onto a woman in a kimono. The young man has a text bubble above him that says, &quot;But you said yourself I could bring back a souvenir!&quot; The woman is drawn as a racial caricature, reflective of broad American views of Japanese people--and especially women--at the time, recognized now as racist and offensive.]]></dcterms:description>
