The other night on Tavis Smiley, two photos were shown to the audience
...the photos reproduced here.
Photo no. 1 is of a white couple wading through chest deep water with some supplies they had taken from a nearby store. The caption on that photo, fed throughout the world on the newswires is: "Two residents wade through chest-deep water after finding bread and soda from a local grocery store after Hurricane Katrina came through the area in New Orleans, Louisiana.(AFP/Getty Images/Chris Graythen)"
Photo No. 2 is of a black man, wading through chest deep water with some supplies he had taken from a nearby store. The caption on THAT photo on the newswires is: "A young man walks through chest deep flood water after looting a grocery store in New Orleans on Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2005.
