Documents That Changed the Way We Live: The “We Can Do It!” Poster

from The Authority File

In this third episode of our 4-part series about Joe Janes’s new book, Documents That Changed the Way We Live, we discuss the famous “We Can Do It” poster. The take-charge, cultural icon Rosie the Riveter depicted in the poster, it turns out, isn’t who you think she is. We’ll talk about that and how this particular document might be less of a “document that changed the world” than the other way around.
