We can do it
E 'dead at 86 years, the workers who gave their faces to the Rosie the Riveter, the young man in shirt sleeves showing the muscles that called on Americans to move forward during World War II posters in the famous "We Can Do it ", over the years become a manifesto of American feminism.
you, Geraldine Doyle, was discovered to be the star of the poster only in 1982 when browsing for a gional and recognizing the girl with the red and white polka dot handkerchief.
The image, che fu scattata da un fotografo della United Press quando Geraldine aveva solo 17 anni e lavorava come operaia in una fabbrica del Michigan, fu poi scelta da un grafico del War Production Coordinating Committee per il celebre manifesto.
