To respond to the somewhat tense discussion we had in class today-- the flag does not have to be destroyed if it touches the ground, but it must be moved so it no longer touches things beneath it or the ground. It is to avoid it becoming soiled or damaged. While I try to understand the position of those who do not hold this symbol sacred, I also hope that as American's we respect that the flag is very important to many people for different reasons, and that in itself is a tolerance that should be considered. Few citizens agree with everything America has done or is currently doing, but we enjoy many rights and freedoms as citizens, and we have the right to protest those things we don't agree with.

This website shows type and fonts that are easy to read. It would be good for last years photo class to look at this to understand it a little more.

these are great examples of how words are really powerful and need to be confronted if we are to dismantle the insidious sexism, racism and homophobia that plague our culture.
