World War II Propaganda in the US (1942):
The Ducktators is a 1942 Wartime Cartoon released by Warner Brothers and directed by Norm McCabe. It is a satirical allegory forWorld War II depicting Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Hirohito (or Hideki Tojo) as ducks and geese who take over a farm, while a peace dove all lets it happen. The short ends with a propaganda message to buy more war bonds and join the army.
As you watch, consider: what was the message of this piece of propaganda? What does propaganda like this tell us about American sentiment at the time?
