United States
1968
Offset lithograph, archival frame
Frame: 21½ × 31 in (54.6 × 78.7 cm) | Image: 20⅛ × 29¾ in (51.1 × 75.6 cm)
Produced in 1968 at the height of Vietnam War-era resistance, this offset lithograph by Kyoshi Kuromiya is one of the most direct artifacts of American protest culture. Kuromiya was a Japanese American civil rights and antiwar activist closely associated with Martin Luther King Jr. The poster's confrontational title reflects the period's resistance to the draft and the war it fed.
The image centers on a young man burning his draft card — an act of deliberate civil disobedience that carried federal criminal penalties under the 1967 Amendment to the Military Selective Service Act. The composition is photographic, the typography massive and unambiguous, designed to function as both street communication and political statement. The poster is held in several museum collections.
