"Challenging Discrimination: A Journey Through History" Discrimination has plagued societies throughout history, but it is through powerful moments like the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico City that we witness acts of defiance and solidarity. American runners Tommie Smith and John Carlos boldly raised their fists in the Black Power salute during the medal ceremonies, a symbol of protest against racial discrimination. Australian Peter Norman stood by their side, wearing an OPHR badge to show his support for equality. In times of war, discrimination takes on different forms. The British World War II poster titled "Tittle Tattle Lost the Battle" warns against careless talk that could endanger lives. Similarly, Glenn Grohe's American World War II poster "He's Watching You" reminds citizens to be vigilant against enemies within. During WWII, Soviet propaganda sought unity among its people with Viktor Koretsky's poster depicting a soldier as their savior - "Soldier, save us. " It aimed to overcome divisions and unite everyone under one cause. However, discrimination extends beyond wartime struggles. Matthew Hopkins was an English witch-finder who persecuted innocent women accused of witchcraft in the 17th century. His actions were fueled by prejudice and fear. The fight for equal rights continued even after wars ended. The Reconstruction era upheld principles of equality in America in 1868 when progress was made towards ensuring civil liberties for all citizens. Artistic expressions have also played a role in challenging discrimination throughout history. John Baggridge's portrait challenges societal norms with his unconventional appearance while advocating for individuality and acceptance. Women too have faced discrimination over time; a vintage advertisement asks why they shouldn't go the limit when it comes to smoking rights – highlighting gender inequality prevalent at that time. Photographs such as "Slave Children Behind Their Shacks" expose the harsh realities endured by African-American children during slavery – reminding us how far society has come yet how much further there is to go. Tragically, it has often led to violence.
