Rosie the Riveter

This specific ad was first created to depict the women who worked in the factories during WWII.  Rosie the Riveter is a cultural icon that helps other Americans to realize that women can do the same work men can do.  This poster eventually became an icon for Woman’s Rights. This poster alone has motivated women in a number of countries around the world to fight for equal rights, mainly including equal pay.
