It is incredible how many 'like' this picture, and how few speak their thoughts on the image. 4,555 people + one. I am going to 'like' it when I finish talking about the picture.
The image of the beautiful white woman leaning on the muscle car in the year of its make is part of the complex stories of the time that looks good on film, and print, and and feels good in song and boast! So much in this one picture points to the present, and where we are now culturally, politically and financially as a nation. Many attitudes and reactions to World War II and I hidden in this image led to the current challenges on the national front, and much of those roots are buried in this image.
If anyone is a global citizen this is not foreign news. It is the American story we live, and others react to that is captured here. Well, that is one thing. It is amazing the beauty the photographer here capturing story and an era with the eye, and the cameras. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 10.25.13
