<p>Today, we will be looking at an issue of an American home magazine consumed primarily by middle-class white women, and the ways in which it reproduced images from the Philippine-American War. Would such photographs be shown in popular books or magazines today? How might they have influenced public opinion within the United States about the war?</p>

<p>Images of the Philippine-American War quickly reached American homes through outlets such as <em>Leslie’s Weekly</em>, an issue of which we see here. This magazine is an illustrated weekly that strove to provide eyewitness accounts of international events, for a consumer base that consisted largely of middle-class white American women. What is depicted on the cover of this particular issue of <em>Leslie’s Weekly</em>? After you watch the video, please complete the exercises that follow. </p>
