Propaganda Explanation
The propaganda poster that I made represents the influence of Mao's thoughts and teachings and the effects that it had on the citizens even on children. Mao motivated the citizens that by working hard, they could prosper for the better and have the benefits as a reward. Also, he emphasized how working together as a family and harvesting together would bring joy. For the image that is similar to my propaganda poster is image sixteen on the wiki. The image presented a picture of a family with children smiling and looking happy. Also, they are celebrating their harvest and you can also see the field and crops gathered in the house. For the characteristics, it reflects the effect of Mao and his influence through the citizens encouraging the prosperity and the joy that everyone could have by working hard. Then, for the Cultural Revolution, it reflects how everything was changing for the better in the new way a Mao had indicated himself. Also, it clearly reflects the power of Mao and his ability to influence his people with propaganda and with his leadership. Lastly, to compare the two propaganda, they both include a portrait of Mao and the red flag to symbolize the power of Mao and the strong ideology of Communism and Cultural Revolution. Another fact, it both symbolizes the ideal meaning how everyone should work together and bring benefits to the community. Therefore, China was a nation with many influence leading their development further than ever imagined.
