Fictional Women in WWII: The History Behind Their Impact
from The Donut Dollies · host The Donut Dollies
This week we're unpacking the impact of some of wartime's most influential women, who weren't actually real. The history of some of the most impactful women of wartime propaganda is that they were created in offices with the purpose of providing a morale boost to the women who were still at home. Faces like Rosie The Riveter, whose reminded women that they could join the factory workforce and do just as the men had; or Betty Crocker who helped stretch the rations at home became household names. And all that without ever actually existing. Grab your coffee and a fresh sinker and join us in The Clubmobile as we unpack the history of the most famous non-existent women during the war.
