In other words, propaganda is used to influence people psychologically in order to alter social perceptions. In the case of This is the Enemy, the purpose was to change American perceptions of the Japanese (Figure 1). One strategy used to accomplish this was fear tactic. When viewing the image, the thick lines and dark colors combine to create an ominous tone. The stark white of the teeth and eyes on both faces highlights their extremely emotional expressions: one of anger and menace on the Japanese soldier, and one of utter fear and terror on the woman.

Mulberry Street is well known. First book, and lots read it.
I am just trying to be provocative. And by the way, I think our government is a very important part of our nation, but they are not synonyms.
I wasn’t trying to convey offense with you.
I agree with your thoughts here.
We actually have a great blueprint of how government should
operate, but we have abandoned it to destroy its potential.
...for good, that is.
I’ll believe in racism when someone can show me documented history for ALL of Sub-Suharan Africa prior to 1430!
If I Ran a Zoo is also popular and is the first know reference to the word “Nerd”!
Didn’t Al Sharpton say how Africans were doing algebra or astronomy when Ancient Greeks were in caves, or words to that effect?
That’s a good one! Use of the wheel in all of Sub-Suharan Africa did not occur until the 1870s. Northern Africans were using the wheel in 400BC!
Grasshopper; you are being to understand!
very cool!
