What a strong picture. I wonder what these men were thinking.
Any idea who they are and what happened to them?

That cop looks like a dad. He’s probably thinking “poor kid. You don’t have a chance in life.”

KKK hoods look kind of cute on a toddler. Like a funny little Halloween costume. The hate involved with making it is just mind boggling though.

You arent born with hate. You learn it from the people around you. I hope the child in this picture took a different path.

I am not sure if this is a post-filter picture or it’s the original, but I have seen this picture in color, which we had in 1992 (this could be from a black/white newspaper but it seems odd)

Most pathetic form of propaganda: using children.

Right before the child enters to the giness for "Distance flown by a kid without material assistance".

This Again…

The kid is not reacting to the cop.

The kid is reacting to his own reflection in the riot shield.
