Description

Wir stehen nicht allein: "We do not stand alone". Nazi propaganda poster from 1936. The woman is holding a baby and the man is holding a shield inscribed with the title of Nazi Germany's 1933 Law for the Prevention of Hereditarily Diseased Offspring (their compulsory sterilization law). The couple is in front of a map of Germany, surrounded by the flags of nations which had enacted (to the left) or were considering (bottom and to the right) similar legislation.

The countries which had enacted compulsory sterilization laws (and the date shown) were:

  • United States (1912) (date illegible; Indiana enacted first laws in 1907)
  • Denmark (1929)
  • Norway (1934)
  • Sweden (1935)
  • Finland (1935?)

The countries where sterilization laws were being considered were:

  • Hungary
  • United Kingdom
  • Switzerland
  • Poland
  • Japan
  • Latvia
  • Estonia

The map also shows the pre-WW1 borders of Germany in the east (territory lost to Poland).

The poster was not, I believe, printed on transparency, so I don't see why it should have one. Even if it were to have an alpha channel added, one that just matches the brightness levels will not look correct.
