1920 USSR Poster

Kulak Fist

by John Kula



The fist of the Revolution will crush the fist of the countryside.

A Bolshevik poster circa 1920 proselytizing against the despised Kulaks.

Kulak = fist = profiteering peasant; middleman; someone who makes profit from the work of others without adding any value themselves. Kula has nothing to do with Kulak, I might add.
