Every year, America celebrates the hard work and dexterity of its committed citizens on the first Monday of each September. People enjoy the long weekend with their families doing barbecues and participating in Labor Day parades. This year, Labor Day will be held on September 1st and it will be a holiday in every State of the United States of America.
When our forefathers migrated to this amazing continent, they had a dream. That dream promised them everything from indiscrimination to prosperity. Centuries later, we have become doubtful as to what extent our expectations have come true, how our own behavior as true Americans dictate the future of our coming generations and of those who are going to become a part of the American dream from other parts of the world. We have an exceedingly diverse culture and every year millions of foreigners bring something unique to the table, our forbearance and liberality has receded. We discriminate against minorities, naively follow stereotypes, and interfere in the affairs of other countries. These things were never a part of our vision. We were supposed to create a better life for everyone, free from all prejudice and continued success earned through effort and endurance.
As the Labor Day is only a couple of weeks away, I thought of bringing some art work related to the occasion. Therefore, I thought of collecting some stimulating Labor Day Posters, both vintage and new, for my readers. The following posters were published at different blogs and a short description to their sources is available below. Enjoy your Labor Day and tell us what special plans you have for the holiday. Do they involve perusing through some amazing designer portfolios?
