An excellent idea to save children's lives. Also, a brilliantly designed campaign against a major killer.

My favourite One World YouTube response:

Agitprop and a Photograph - Earn your media!

Morgan — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 04:53:00 +0000

This photograph is the first one I have ever had published in a major daily newspaper. This picture of Captain Clean which I took as part of my rally duties at the LHMU was published in The Age.

Better to earn than pay for a circulation of 1 million.

Anyone can dress up.. and you don't have to look as good as Captain Clean to get your message across.

This button and the demonstrations in Quebec in 2001 will always have a special place in my heart.

Here, a chalk artist protests the snatch squad who inexplicably grabbed me out of the 60,000 person peaceful Saturday afternoon demonstration.

Now that's a button

You couldn't say it better than that.

This photo comes from just prior to the UVic Board of Governors meeting where the end of the Tuition fee freeze at UVic was effected in March 2002:

This is a button from the same campaign:

Say No!

The emphatic nature of propaganda can always be backed up with emotion and dialogue.

Propaganda..

Morgan — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 09:13:00 +0000

This will be a simple blog. A place for propaganda to go and be remembered. To remember the campaigns of the past and to link the past propaganda with current causes.

You may not like what this blog says, but you surely will find ideas galore for your buttons, banners, toques, t-shirts, posters, placards, revolt and revolution.

I'll start it off with a reminder of the power of the hand drawn sign:

This particular placard is from the 1998-1999 BC Projectionist's strike (IATSE 348).
