EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful poster, created in 1917, was part of the Give or We Perish campaign launched by the American Committee for Relief in the Near East (ACRNE) to raise funds for humanitarian aid in the wake of war and famine in the Middle East. The image depicts a woman in traditional Middle Eastern dress, her face etched with worry and despair, clutching a shawl tightly around her shoulders. The stark title of the campaign, "Give or We Perish," is emblazoned across the top in bold, red letters, emphasizing the urgency of the situation. The ACRNE was established in response to the devastating impact of World War I on the civilian populations of Armenia, Greece, Syria, and Persia. The war had disrupted agricultural production and trade, leading to widespread famine and disease. The committee, which was chaired by prominent American philanthropist and social reformer Mary E. Garrett, aimed to raise $30 million to provide food, clothing, and medical assistance to those in need. The poster was designed to evoke sympathy and compassion from potential donors, highlighting the desperate plight of the people in the Near East. The image of the woman, with her haunted expression and the backdrop of a barren, war-torn landscape, is a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict. The campaign was successful, raising significant funds to provide much-needed relief to the suffering populations of the Near East. This poster is a testament to the power of visual communication in mobilizing public support for humanitarian causes. It is a powerful reminder of the enduring humanitarian challenges that continue to plague the Middle East and the importance of collective action in addressing them.
