Must Children Die and Mothers Plead in Vain? Buy More Liberty Bonds
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A poignant and powerful call to action, this poster from 1918 captures the emotional depth of the sacrifices being made during World War I. The image presents a heart-wrenching scene of a mother, her face etched with worry and despair, as she clutches her children protectively. Her pleading gaze is directed towards the viewer, imploring them to take action and prevent further suffering. The backdrop of the scene is the chaotic and destructive backdrop of war, with explosions and smoke in the distance. The title of the poster, written in bold, capitalized letters, drives home the urgency of the situation. The use of the question "Must Children Die?" is a rhetorical one, as the answer is clear - the war was taking a heavy toll on innocent lives. The poster's call to action is simple yet effective - "Buy More Liberty Bonds." Liberty Bonds were government securities sold to citizens during World War I to help finance the war effort. By purchasing these bonds, citizens were not only contributing to the war effort but also investing in their own future, as the bonds could be redeemed after the war for face value plus interest. This poster is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of collective action in times of crisis. It is a testament to the emotional appeal that was used to mobilize the public during wartime and the enduring power of visual storytelling. The image of the mother and her children continues to evoke empathy and compassion, reminding us of the sacrifices made during times of conflict.
