BACK TO SPAIN

This poster was part of an ongoing campaign in republican zones to promote literacy and education. The poster reads, "Illiteracy blinds the spirit. Study, soldier."

One of the concerns of the Spanish revolutionary movement was the eradication of the widespread illiteracy plaguing the country. A common vision shared by Spaniards working for a new society was that of a people well informed and educated. This poster was published by the Socialist Union, CGT.
