I understand the union label will now replace the presidential seal. /s
Sarcasm, maybe, D1, but not far from the facts on the ground. I took the following two photos in Inglewood, CA, just a couple of days ago.
The new American flag, seen in a black-owned barbeque fast food place. The O in 'hope' is, of course, the now famous Obama symbol from the campaign. This billboard is not far from a once large, shiny, thriving mall that was hit hard during the riots in the early 1990's. Through the years, it became a seriously dangerous place to go. It was closed about 10 years ago and now sits blighted and abandoned.
YES WE CAN put black people on TV, a huge billboard on Hawthorne Blvd., in Inglewood.
Inglewood, for folks who may not know, is a largely African-American city (although many Hispanics are moving in). Inglewood is an aging city whose main claim to fame is the Hollywood Park racetrack and the old forum where the Lakers used to play. Along with the Lakers, business has fled Inglewood in droves over the last 20 years, yet in the early 2000's the city council and voters rejected a WalMart. WalMart simply shrugged and built their store a few miles further south in Torrance. The place is always busy, and most of its shoppers are black and Hispanic who go there from other cities.
