Thought I would put this here while I remember. Geoffrey Arnold just linked to it on reddit and I hadn't seen it or anything like it before.Possibly he may be along to give some background on it and its author. I haven't read it as yet myself. Hopefully this thread will remind me to do so.

Heightism in political cartoons.

Note how Mayor Johnson and the Hispanic immigrant in the cartoon are portrayed as much shorter (no coincidence that the mayor's facial features are hyper-exaggerated either). 

Heightism is inescapable in the greater society, but these social commentators purposefully use these tactics to convey a specific message.

People magazine article on Heightism from 1980

The story remains unchanged. Thought I'd share. Link to article here.

Well written with lots of examples of observing height and its impact on relationships and perception in the workplace.
