BACK
TO SPAIN
No
Pasaran - Pasaremos (They Shall Not Pass -We
Shall Pass) read the words on this poster created
by artist, Puyol. The image is of an armed peasant
and a soldier of the Spanish republic united in
their march against fascism.
The
slogan, "They Shall Not Pass"
was a reference to the determination of republicans
and their sympathizers to halt the advance of the
combined forces of Franco, Hitler, and Mussolini.
The militant slogan of "No Pasaran" was
taken up around the world as an expression of solidarity
with the people of Spain.
