Iconic Photos

We were asked in today's class to come up with some iconic photos and examine how they affect/evoke differences among us, so here are a few I came up  with:







After our discussion today I started to think about collective memory, and how few of these occurences happened while I was alive, but I have a memory of them , and it occurrs to me that as relates to our cultural memory the events and images that are collectively passed on among us are those that threatened our nationality ( I think.)
