We Can All Do Our Part! In 1943, during World War II, Coca-Cola created the “Our America” series of vintage motion picture posters. Each of the four unique posters presented facts of American history and called on citizens to do their share in supporting their country’s wartime effort. These posters were intended to inform and educate, with a professional tone of voice, in an effort to inspire every American to do their part to support the war effort. The “Our America” series of posters helped instill a sense of shared pride and collective purpose in the American people. It was a way to help all of us come together for a common goal: to achieve success in a time of need. Let us continue to use “Our America” today, not just for its educational value, but for its historic reminder of the powerful spirit of unity that can come from a nation working together. We can all do our part.
