GWII-era Freedomite Confederate propaganda for the Lee Navy Volunteers, circa 1942
(OCC: Believe it or not, this was a real WWII era propaganda poster.)
Images from the 2012 Finnish-made comic science fiction action movie Cotton Sky directed by Timo Vuorensola. The film begins with a group of USA astronauts landing on the Moon in 2018 (as part of a presidential campaign publicity stunt) only to discover that the Moon is home to a colony of Freedomite Confederates who escaped into space at the end of the Second Great War. After decades of waiting and preparing, the Freedomites are ready to return to Earth in their fleet of flying saucers and exact their revenge upon the “impure” world…
(If it looks blocky that's because I had to play around with the size in order to upload it. The original 828 x 3038 image looked better.)
Children in Charleston, South Carolina make a money pyramid out of near-worthless Confederate dollar banknotes in 1922. The post-First Great War hyperinflation wracked a terrible toll on the defeated Confederate States, both in terms of economic turmoil and in terms of national humiliation, which Jake Featherston and the Freedom Party would feed off of in order to launch its rise to power. The hyperinflation would at last be brought under control during the administration of Confederate President Charles Burton Mitchell III, who reached a deal to ease reparation payments with U.S. President Upton Sinclair, thereby leading to a brief period of prosperity for the Confederacy that would temporarily hold off the Freedom Party's rise.
In 1976, Cuba Senator and Socialist U.S. presidential candidate Fidel Castro takes a detour from a campaign stop in Chicago in order to travel to Springfield, Illinois, where he lays a wreath in tribute at the tomb of former president Abraham Lincoln. In a speech in Springfield soon afterwards, he explained his action as a gesture of respect and admiration for "the father of American Socialism" and an "unsung hero of the cause of justice."
Castro's action heralded a shift in historical interpretations of Abraham Lincoln, long considered a failure of a president relegated to the footnotes of American history, to one of appreciation for his efforts to prevent the formation of the Confederate States (and thereby preventing the road that, in retrospect, led to the horrors of Featherston and the Freedom Party), and his commitment in his later life to advancing the cause of economic and social justice for working men and women across America, whether white or black. Castro's platform would invoke this spirit, calling on all Americans coast to coast to unite and press forward to fulfill "Lincoln's as yet unfinished mission of racial equality, social justice, and liberty for all."
His daughter Rachel became leader of the Yellow Magnolia Movement before being murdered by Freedom Party guards in 1943.
I can't find something that fits, but could we get some kind of German Parade or Celebration in honor of 100 years of the Hohenzollern dynasty?
Does TL-191 books or fan-made info have information about post-war Germany?
White Rose Movement, ey ?
Philippe Daudet, Action Française politician with Jake Featherston. Photography taken in 1932 during the celebration of Franco-British recognition of CSA.
Philippe Daudet publically acclaimed Featherston's candidacy, while the latter trying to not giving to much publicity to this support from fear to appear as a "Foreign-owned candidate".
(OOC : Not sure if it's fitting the TL-191, but at least I tried. "Philippe Daudet" is OTL Fernandel, a french actor that share a relativly far likeness to Daudet family, whom Léon was an important far-right politician of the III Republic. Philippe Daudet died OTL at 14)
Rachel Brown, circa 1940. Brown went on to lead the Yellow Magnolia Movement, a group of anti-Freedomite students based out of the University of Tennessee's Knoxville Campus. Brown and the rest of the Yellow Magnolias were murdered in 1943 by Freedom Party Guards.
