The new WPA

Works


The Work Projects Administration helped put millions of Americans back to work following the Great Depression. It formed a work force which completed many public buildings, projects and roads and operated large arts, drama, media and literacy projects. It fed children and redistributed food, clothing and housing. It's almost safe to say, that America will need a new "new deal" to help our economy & workforce recover.

We can only hope that it will be created with the environment in mind. Doing so can help quickly change companies and labor forces impact on the environment, faster than any government regulations could. We could create a entire workforce, form scratch, with new morals and beliefs in place. I only hope our government can meet then challenge. I just was playing around with some WPA era posters and wanted to create something pro-union & pro-environment.

I hope everyone likes it, I'm gonna make an effort to overcome my fear of general criticism and get some more of my work out there.
