Answer: The cartoon which is credited to Benjamin Franklin shows a flag with a disjointed snake on it, with the words, "Join or Die>"

Explanation: The meaning of the cartoon is that Franklin was speaking out to the people, about the disunity of the colonies and how important it was for the colonies to be united. Near each part of the disjointed snake were the initials of the different colonies.
