EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and striking poster from the Spanish Civil War urges viewers to "Join the POUM militia" with the rallying cry of "Alistaos en las milicias del POUM." Created by artist Siwe in 1936, this piece captures the fervor and intensity of a tumultuous time in Spanish history.
The image features a member of the militia, armed and ready for battle, standing proudly against a backdrop of vibrant colors. The message is clear: it is time to enlist, to join the fight for freedom and justice.
The Spanish Civil War was a brutal conflict that tore apart families and communities, pitting brother against brother in a struggle for power and ideology. The militias played a crucial role in this war, fighting on both sides with passion and dedication.
This poster serves as a reminder of those turbulent times, when ordinary men were called upon to become soldiers in defense of their beliefs. It speaks to the courage and sacrifice required in times of war, as well as the hope for a better future that inspired so many to take up arms.
As we look back on this period in history, let us remember those who fought bravely for their ideals, and honor their memory with gratitude and respect. Join the POUM militia - enlist today!
