Please follow the Courageous Conversations protocol as you frame your response. Speak from personal experience only. Isolate race.

Analyze the April 30, 2015, Time Magazine cover. Describe what you see, being sure to include specific detail. What story do you believe the photographer, Devin Allen is trying to tell through this photograph? Is there a 'stock story' about race in America present in this image? Is there a 'hidden story' about race in America present in this image? Do a bit of historical research. What connections do you think the editors of Time Magazine want viewers to make between 1968 and 2015? Why?

Be sure to post your analysis as a discussion starter.

I feel that the magazine is saying that "white" people are running off "black" people because they don't belong there. Also everything is different in the old days.

Re: Upsetting disappointing

I see where you are going with this but it is more like the blacks can't get away from what they did in the past.

Re: Upsetting disappointing

Your saying almost the same but you simplified it way more than I did
