The message of peace and goodwill of the children of Wales, 1980.

Description

Peace and Goodwill Message Poster for 1980. Themes: International Year of Refugees, refugees right to a country, a nationality, to a religion and to a home and family, song composed by young ministers, refugees compared to a tumbleweed being blown and scattered by the wind, without roots or an anchor. Quote: "Refugee.
Tumbleweed, rootless wanderer, Hot nowhere to lay his head; Tumbleweed, blown and scattered, Torn by the wind, got no bed… Cold, frightened, homeless wanderer, No home town, no sheltering wall, Why can’t you hear him crying? Can’t read his graffiti scrawl?”
