Roosevelt, in a speech on U.S. foreign policy, 1944

Poster with a black and white photo of a large crowd of people trying to enter a failing bank to withdraw their money in Berlin in 1933.

Tyrants have tried to do that often before, and the ideas have risen up in their might and destroyed them.” - Helen Keller, whose books were burned by Nazis because she was a socialist, 1933

Poster with an image of a row of Vietnamese women walking along a path between two fields, heavily patrolled by U.S. Marines in 1965.
