La Jolla, California - After four years in the military, Micah Wright took a radical career turn - to writing children's animation.
In his book Back the Attack! Remixed War Propaganda this Emmy-nominated author combines these different roles, with a twist.
This volatile collection of political posters reworks classic American World War I and II propaganda into timely commentaries on war, peace, and patriotism in the post-9/11 era.
These 40 one-sided posters skewer:
the war mentality,
the Bush White House,
Homeland Security,
the War on Terror,
John Ashcroft,
the 2000 Presidential election,
the military-industrial complex,
and much more.......
Famed posters of yesteryear such as "Loose Lips Sink Ships" and Uncle Sam's "I Want You" are reinvented with new messages of peace and protest.
Back the Attack's images are ideal for enlarging and for use at political rallies and demonstrations.
