EDITORS COMMENTS
Hunger - For Three Years America Fought Starvation in Belgium: A Call for Sacrifice and Compassion (1918) During World War I, the German occupation of Belgium led to a severe humanitarian crisis as the Belgian people faced the brunt of food shortages and starvation. In response, the American people were urged to make sacrifices in their daily diets to help alleviate the suffering. This powerful poster, created in 1918, shows the stark reality of the situation with images of emaciated women and children. The text reads, "For Three Years America Has Fought Starvation in Belgium. Will you eat less wheat, meat, fats and sugar that we may still send food in ship loads?" The poster is a poignant reminder of the global impact of war and the power of collective action. It was produced during a time when the United States was a major supplier of food to Europe, and the call to action was for individuals to make personal sacrifices to ensure that food continued to reach those in need. The image of the starving women and children served as a powerful motivator for Americans to do their part, and the poster was widely circulated to spread awareness and generate support for the cause. The poster is a testament to the human spirit and the capacity for compassion and empathy, even in the most challenging of times. It is a reminder that small individual actions can have a significant impact on the larger community and that collective efforts can help alleviate suffering and bring about positive change.
