EDITORS COMMENTS
Heraus mit unsern Gefangenen! Tretet alle dem Volksbund zum Schutze der deutschen Kriegs- und Zivilgefangenen bei!" - This powerful call to action is depicted in this evocative poster from 1919. The image shows a man trapped behind bars, his face etched with determination and hope, as he reaches out towards the viewer. The text above his head urges all to join the "Volksbund," or People's Alliance, for the Protection of German Civilian and War Prisoners. The context of this poster is rooted in the aftermath of World War I, a time of great turmoil and upheaval. Millions of soldiers and civilians were held in prison camps across Europe, many of them enduring harsh conditions and suffering from malnutrition and disease. The German people were deeply concerned for the welfare of their loved ones and sought to bring about their release and ensure their safe return home. The Volksbund was a grassroots organization that emerged in response to this crisis. Its mission was to advocate for the rights and well-being of German prisoners of war and civilians held in Allied camps. Through peaceful protests, petitions, and diplomatic efforts, the Volksbund worked tirelessly to bring about the release of as many prisoners as possible. This poster is a testament to the power of collective action and the enduring human spirit. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and struggles endured by ordinary people during times of war and conflict, and the importance of standing up for the rights and dignity of all, regardless of nationality or circumstance. The poster's bold design and impassioned message continue to resonate with viewers today, making it a poignant and powerful addition to any historical or social justice collection.
