We Are Prepared
A propaganda poster created by Poesat Tenaga Peloekis Indonesia (P.T.P.I) in 1945 for the Indonesian proclamation of freedom on August 17, 1945, features a man wearing an Indonesian flag headband and holding a gun, standing tall with the text "We are prepared." This phrase signifies that Indonesians are ready to confront colonizers. The poster is part of a scrapbook titled "We Struggle with Posters (P.T.P.I.)," containing reduced reproductions of P.T.P.I. posters from 1945-1947, addressing both Indonesian and global issues.
