I love this photograph. It reflects happier times in America when the menace of Ice and Donald Trump couldn't have been imagined.

Your photographs speak to the heart of what it meant to be an American and mirror the joy that drew people from around the world who struggled to make it their home. Those times are gone, but your body of work still tells that story. ❤️

Cool photo. This looks like a time when folks respected the Native American, giving the kid with the feathers the honor of carrying the flag.
