We put "In God We Trust" on our money as propaganda against communism in the 1950's. At least the Soviets were honest enough to admit they would lie, cheat, steal, and murder to achieve their goals while we claimed to be on a mission for God. In truth, we did the same things they were doing. LBJ signed the Civil Rights act in part to show the world that we were not a white racist nation. The communists were winning the propaganda war in all the countries that had dark skinned populations like Cuba and Vietnam. All they had to do was show them the news reels from places like Selma. For an example of white racist foreign policy, we supported apartheid in South Africa.
