- Description:
- Shirley Wajda, history curator at the Michigan State University Museum, delivers a talk entitled "A war of words: labor and anti-radical propaganda during World War I." Keller talks about her new exhibit at the museum featuring the university's extensive collection of World War I posters. She says that the goal of the exhibit is threefold: to engage visitors by telling a story of the WWI home-front through the posters, stimulate discussion of the first sustained instance of government propaganda and suppression of speech in the U.S., and to provide historical examples with which to teach media literacy. She answers questions from the audience. The event is convened by Professor John P. Beck from the Michigan State University School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.
