Would You Let This Man Stand in the Way of Your Bottom Line? A charged socialist broadside, incorporating Jeff Widener's "Tank Man" photograph, attacking the erasure of human and labour rights in the name of profit. This poster was issued by supporters of Wei Jingsheng, a democracy activist who quickly rose to prominence after Mao's death and who served 18 years in prison before being deported to the US in 1997. We have traced a single copy at the University of Michigan.The poster is unequivocal: "business is the enemy of human rights and knows it".
