This is a remake of the Soviet poster of the 1960s, which was designed in support of solidarity of women of the world. Many posters of the era were dedicated to internationalism, friendship and solidarity of people of different races. Usually in these images a white person was placed in the foreground assuming a leading position. Remaking the image I changed the positions of women by placing a black woman in a forefront.
