The symbol of anti-nuclear war, that is, the symbol of peace, is one of the symbols widely used in the world today. This logo was designed by Gerald Holtom, a participant in the "Nuclear Disarmament Movement" (CDN), at the request of Bertrand Russel, as the badge of the action committee set up to protest against 1958 "Atomic Weapons Development Research Center" in Aldermaston Village, England. The original idea of the logo was put forward by the designers and graduates of the Royal College of Art in London, and it was expressed by a circle of a Christian cross, but it was opposed by Christians. From the design point of view, the logo design manuscript preserved in Bradford College represents the combination of a dead person and a newborn. The symbol is a combination of naval signal codes "N" and "D", which is the first letter of the English word for nuclear disarmament. "N" means that the two flags are at a 45-degree angle downward, while "D" means that there are two flags, one with the flag up and the other with the flag down.
After being used by friends of Martin Luther King in a civil rights movement, the symbol of peace is widely used in the United States, especially in various rights movements and American organizations that believe in orthodox Christianity. In the 1970s, some people thought that this symbol contained some evil metaphor, others thought it was a symbol of productism, so people began to avoid using it. Under the apartheid system in South Africa, even the official ban on the use of this sign. During the Vietnam War, opponents of the war used this symbol, so this symbol is also called "the footprints of the great American chicken".
