Description: War is Not Healthy is based on a poster created by Lorraine Schneider in response to the outcry over the Vietnam War. The artists’ intention was to purposely give it the appearance that a child had created it. This unique style created one of the most iconic anti-war posters of all time that was a common sight in dorm rooms and on protest signs throughout the Vietnam era and beyond.
Description: The Ministry of Truth (Newspeak: Minitrue) is the ministry of propaganda. As with the other ministries in the novel, the name Ministry of Truth is a misnomer because in reality it serves the opposite: it is responsible for any necessary falsification of historical events. However, like the other ministries, the name is also apt because it decides what "truth" is in Oceania. As well as administering "truth", the ministry spreads a new language amongst the populace called Newspeak, in which, for example, "truth" is understood to mean statements like 2 + 2 = 5 when the situation warrants. In keeping with the concept of doublethink, the ministry is thus aptly named in that it creates/manufactures "truth" in the Newspeak sense of the word.
