Discussion Topic: Photographing the Beginning of the Civil Rights Movement

In my perspective I thought that Count’s News photo was more powerful. Since in the 1950s they were still segregation. That is the biggest flaw in America back then. The fact that it was a country of freedom, Elizabeth had to suffer the racism, and the bullying just because she wasn’t white. Even though segregation is outlaw this still happens around the US. Many children in the US from different countries still get bullied, and picked on by there skin color and race. This is still the biggest flaw in the US. The picture from Count’s News was powerful because it brought guilt to Americans back then. It was a good picture to expose the racism. Therefore I thought Count New’s photo was a more powerful photo.
