This poster shows the place of China as leader of oppressed people all over the world. Symbolizing international unity against the oppressors, three workers represent the continents of Asia, Africa, and the Americas-with Asia given the central position. Above the large globe, a slogan reads “Proletarians of the world unite.” The people are armed and ready to fight.
