Comment on Evergreen’s most controversial image? by tom hyde

This is such a good photo. To me, the photo itself isn’t controversial, it’s just what is, or was and beyond that, it provides historical context for both Evergreen and a nation. It also raises questions, a lot of questions that are still relevant today for both the college and the nation – the meaning of patriotism, the right of protest, the value of independent thought and expression, etc. Precisely because it raises those questions and makes people feel something, anything, this photo goes beyond good to great. A big step, a huge step in fact. That it was defaced, then stolen, is perhaps the greatest compliment to both the photo and the photographer. Thank you for posting this.

I had really hoped that people would engage with the image, and have to admit to feeling disappointed that 1) so few people seem to have any interest in a thoughtful conversation about the implications of this photo, and 2) that commentators are already taking aim at each other rather than engaging the question at hand. I really believe that the Photoland community can do better in using the Internet as a forum for genuine consideration of the power of photography.

Aim higher, Photolanders!

When calling others idiots you may want to use proper grammar.

People have the freedom to express themselves even if they chose to be fucking idiots. Burning the American Flag does nothing to stop a war and not to mention the girl in the flag was getting her school partially paid for by the big bad government. This does a lot of good and bad and burning the American flag is no better then occupying a country. I hope this young lady has grown up and realized how fucking stupid her actions were LOL

Comment on A Conversation with Steve Herman by Steve Blakeslee

Thanks, Photoland, for this nice glimpse into Evergreen’s collection and into Steve Herman’s work. I was one of those curious students of his that he talks about–curious in more senses of the word than one….

Could we look forward to seeing more faculty portraits like this?
