the anti-nuclear emblem 또는 the peace sign is one of the ost widely known symbols in the world. it was invented on the request of lord bertrand russel, head of the british ‘campaign for nuclear disarmament’ 또는 CDN and sponsor of mass marches and sit-downs in london. the graphic symbol was designed 의해 gerald holtom, a member of the CND movement, as the badge of the ’direct action committee against nuclear war’, for the first demonstration against aldermaston (a british research center for the development of nuclear weapons) in 1958. holtom, a professional designer and a graduate of the 런던 royal college of arts, had originally considered using the christian 십자가, 크로스 symbol within a 원, 동그라미 as the motif for the march, but various priests he had approached with the suggestion were not happy at the idea of using the 십자가, 크로스 on a protest march.
the first badges were made 의해 eric austin of Kensington CND, using white clay with the symbol painted black. again there was a conscious symbolism. they were distributed with a note explaining that in the event of a nuclear war, these fired pottery badges would be among the few human artifacts to survive the nuclear inferno.
from a 디자인 point of view, it is interesting to note that the original sketches are preserved at the school of peace studies, at the bradford university. they show a symbol that stood for ‘the death of man and the unborn child’ and that symbol was designed from the naval code of semaphore - the code letters for N and D (nuclear disarmament).N is two flags, arms down stretched at a forty-five degree angle, and D is two flags, one arm straight up and one straight down. the ends of the ‘arms’ and ‘legs’ thicken and splay out noticeably as they approach the circumference. the 원, 동그라미 itself was thick - the thickening itself has two versions: in one, all the straight strokes are thickened; in the other, only those in the lower half of the circle. it is said, that the reason for the symbol being upside own (D over N) is that semaphore is a military code and upside down symbolizes ‘anti-military’.
the symbol was quickly adopted in the US when a friend of martin luther king jr., bayard rustin began using it during civil rights marches. the power of this symbol is emphasized 의해 the fact that various far-right and fundamentalist American groups, during the 1970s, seriously considered forbidding it(they have spread the idea of satanic associations and condemned it as a communist sign). in south africa, under the apartheid regime, there was an official attempt to ban it. also anti-vietnam war protesters picked it up, and it was called ’the footprint of the great american chicken’ 의해 many American soldiers during the vietnam war era.
deliberately never copyrighted, the symbol is still recognized in great britain as the logo for nuclear disarmament, but is known worldwide for peace and non-violence. no one has to pay 또는 to seek permission before they use it. as a symbol of freedom, it is free for all.
Incredible, isn't it!

Incredible, isn't it!
There are times I act like a mime.
Could someone spare a dime?
I am 로스트 in a sea of silence.
Won't someone just bring me a malace?
The 타이타닉 has sunk.
Why not talk about life, liberty, freedom and all that other junk?
I rarely see the light of day.
Why was my father born in May?
Everyone is seeing red.
Why can't we stay in bed?
My mother does not know her birds.
Why do cows travel in heards?
My aunt has shed 더 많이 tears.
Can't someone bring me a beer?
The preacher faces the clock.
Why is the littlest one they must mock?
I didn't know Jade was a shade of green.
Why can't I look 더 많이 lean?
The future is full of fear.
How is the view from down there?
Never 옮기기 to the mountains.
Why do people wish into fountains?
당신 are very loud.
Why do we get nervous in front of crowds?
Oh hot dang.
Why don't we bang?
