16. The song expresses the sort of sentiment or theme that I would like to see expressed by the art.
Edited on Sat Jul-12-08 09:30 PM by ConsAreLiars
The Monsters have destroyed so much and caused so much suffering and fear and hate. I would like something that reaffirms our pride, our courage, the beauty and strength and diversity of our land and people.

At first it seemed that song could be a template, but I think the copyright stuff and the rigidity of such an imposed structure would be better reasons not to follow such a tight script.

I do like explicitly linking the photos to our history of resistance to inhumanity and working for traditional human values and social justice as expressed in song by our troubadours. Maybe "fair use" of phrases from our long history of truth tellers.

Maybe a couple. "This Land Is Our Land." And "We The People."
