In the WW II era the Anti-Defamation League working with the NAACP produced a series of "car cards" - what we would now call windshield flyers. The goal was to encourage an American society without color/creed divisions.
This was very controversial at the time - the army itself was split into white and negro divisions and the flyers were seen in some quarters as minorities using the war to advance their political positions (which is why they all say Buy War Bonds Regularly on the bottom).
The flyers whose file names have people's names at the end I know the illustrator of; if anyone can help identify the other illustrations, I would be very grateful.

A Blue Lives Matter flag is seen in the grill of the Jeep. The Anti-Defamation League is reported (in the Guardian, in the article about Ye) to explain that "White Lives Matter" is hate speech. "We see anti-Black sentiment in the immediate rejoinder to Black Lives Matter that all lives matter, that blue lives matter." That is from the 2018 book by Robin DiAngelo. The Jeep was in the fast food restaurant's parking lot as shown here. I am happy to see this new restaurant from this chain close to my home and close to NASA Johnson Space Center. We also have new windows on our house this week. Before and after is shown for our living room. About 200 houses exist in our community, and I learned that all suburbs reflect racism in the USA. Despite our progresss, that is still the case even here where I have lived since 1997. As Ijeoma Oluo said recently to the University of Washington (YouTube), after race-based Native American genocide and race-based enslavement, everything in the USA is about race, and it will be as long as this nation exists, and no one has the right to say otherwise. (I will look for her exact quote early in that presentation.)

Surat Gujrat December 25, 2009 If someone is having difficulty in imbibing obedience, commitment, faithfulness, honesty and other these well known human moral values, then one can easily look towards to the Asaram bapu ji followers.
Recently, Gujarat government and some media channels were trying to defame sant sri Asaram bapu ji and his followers on various grounds. All these grounds are coming baseless and without any evidence. Further, when nothing was working for the government and the media channels, Gujarat police went inside the ashram and destroy the ashram property without any reasons.
Many followers were brutally attacked therein and media did a good job in trying to build bad image of the ashram and saint Asaram Bapu. However, ground realities are completely different.
Asaram Bapu followers are doing miracles in serving their guru, Sant Shri Asaram Bapu ji.
As per the latest news from Surat, around 150 Asaram Bapu followers travelled from the Jalgaon to surat on foot. Let me tell you the distance: it is more than 250 kilometers. During the entire journey, these 150 followers created an atmosphere of love and peace. They promoted the preachingâs of well known saints to the local people throughout their journey.
They promoted the benefits of powers of pranayams and bahgwad Geeta to the local people. We all know that pranayam and Bhagwad Geeta are the world;s most powerful sources for living a healthy and peaceful life and these sources are treated as pillars for a society, where there is no space for selfishness and crime.
While travelling 350 kms, these Asaram bapu ji followers has provided more strength to these pillars.
Nation salutes the followers of sant sri Asaram bapu ji for their work.

UN’s Kubiš rejects and denounces malicious acts against election integrity, in particular defamation and threats against women, urges respect and civility
Baghdad, Iraq, 24 April 2018 - The Special Representative of the Secretary-General (SRSG) for Iraq, Ján Kubiš, rejects and denounces defamation campaigns notably in social media specifically targeting women candidates in the parliamentary elections, and urges the political parties and all of Iraqi society to stand up against such vulgar acts that only serve to undermine the democratic process.
“Defamation and violence against candidates - women and men – are threats to the integrity of the electoral process. Vulgar acts against posters of women candidates and attacks against reputation and honour of candidates and their families, pressing them to step down, particularly bring anguish to women, for it hurt their and their family honour, dignity and reputation, affect their participation as voters, candidates, election officials, activists and future political leaders and members of parliament and government,” the Special Representative said.
The Special Representative met with a number of women candidates for the Council of Representatives elections to discuss this alarming situation. He highlighted the role of women while encouraging them to press ahead with their campaigns irrespective of the threats and intimidation they are facing. The women called for action at the highest levels to ensure equal chances and fair competition is not undermined.
“Active participation of women in the election means success of the election process and democracy in Iraq. Those behind defamation, cyber bullying and harassment are trying to scare you off, afraid of educated, dynamic, qualified, courageous and open-minded women candidates that rightfully claim their space and meaningful role in political life of Iraq as a critical factor of positive change,” Mr. Kubiš said. “This election should remain a competition to pick the best of the candidates, based on programmes and policies that will serve the people’s interests with honesty and professionalism.”
UNAMI, as depository of the Electoral Charter of Honour signed by the political parties recently on the conduct of the elections, calls on all political parties and their supporters throughout Iraq including the Kurdistan Region to abide by the text and spirit of the document.
“In this regard, I applaud the efforts of the follow-up Committee of the Electoral Charter of Honour in Baghdad to promote respect and civility among candidates,” Mr. Kubiš said. The committee condemned the targeting of female and male candidates and acts of intimidation of the campaign teams and vandalism of posters and unethical acts.
UNAMI adds its voice to the follow-up Committee’s call for taking all necessary measures to ensure that the electoral campaign is conducted in an atmosphere of fair competition and allow the voters to elect their representatives free from pressures or threats. The Mission fully supports the Committee’s call on media outlets and social media to exercise professionalism, refrain from slander and act while safeguarding the traditions and societal values that Iraq prides itself of.
“I call upon all state and political leaders to raise their voices and stand against the targeting and defamation of women candidates,” Mr. Kubiš said.
“I call upon political parties, representatives and civil society and notably the affected candidates to use all legal means to protect themselves and the integrity of the elections. I call upon the political leaders to urge their supporters to refrain from malicious campaigns and acts.”
“I call upon the state, electoral and judicial institutions to investigate and take action against such abuses and their perpetrators, to ensure that the laws are respected and dignity, security and safety of candidates protected so that they can run their campaigns without threats and intimidation.”
