The iconic 9/11 flag that disappeared 15 years ago has been found — nearly 3,000 miles away - The Washington Post

“Raising the Flag at Ground Zero” by Thomas E. Franklin of The Record newspaper of Bergen County, New Jersey, taken on September 11, 2001. 911 Firefighters respond and raise flag on site of the terrorist attack.

US Marines raise a US flag on top of Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima in World War II. February 23, 1945. [1400 x 1060] [Colorized] : r/HistoryPorn

WWII 1945 “Now All Together” Iwo Jima Flag

Image

Trump and the Secret Service at a recent Trump Rally just after shots were fired.

People say that history repeats itself if given enough time, and time is a constant that keeps marching forward. The American Flag is symbolic of freedom, prosperity, and equality for all. When those three values are met with threat, people rise.  Compare and contrast these three images. What are the similarities? What are the images conveying to their audience? What is the importance of photography as a form of art and expression?
