One Man Against a Monologue

This image seems to glorify the writer's strike.

The camera signifies that the cause is important, and it is getting positive attention. The background, too, is decorative and attention-grabbing. It seems as though the strike is something to celebrate and be happy about. All the little lights in the background add significance to the people in front.

The people on stage are also happy. The man in the center looks confident and influential, almost as though he is trying to persuade the viewer to join his cause. He is well-dressed and looks as though he knows what he is talking about.

All in all, the image makes the viewer want to join the strike.
