Propaganda Posters

1. In my own words I would say propaganda is an announcement by the government created to persuade society.

2.  the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person     https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/propaganda

image #1- When I first look at this image I notice the yellow soldier on the horse. I recognize the yellow and orange colors. I notice the soldier is looking away and the horse is in motion, as if the soldier is going to battle.

b. I think the artist message is to get men to join the army.

image #2- I first notice Uncle Sam, he seems to be looking directly and pointing at the viewer. I notice the American colors red, blue, and white. The word "you" seems to be the biggest word and seems to attract any viewer.

b. The artist message is to get people to know that joining the army is a proud American tradition.

image #3-  I notice the women as the focus of the poster. This is very different. The underlined words  also gets my touch.

b. I think the authors message is that men in the navy attracts women.  The purpose is to attract men to the navy.

7. I am fine with the federal government using tax dollars for this purpose. I feel that it is important to get these messages/ideas out to the people so everyone is on the same page.

8. I think WW! was an important time for propaganda cause the US needed as many soldiers for this war as possible, and to persuade men to join these posters were valuable.
