In the first image, the multiple individuals within the geographical outline of America shows us that America’s ideals are based on the foundation of multiple people being successful with a career emphasising the iconic image of the “American Dream”. By being a part of America it shows unity and freedom that they, as a united nation offer people regardless of race, religion and cultural backgrounds. By enforcing this outlook on those who desire equality, individuality and success, America's ideals are viewed as achievable to every human who seeks to better themselves.
However, this image argues an alternative view of the American vision. Currently in America, race relations have never been more polarised than before. America strives for equality, regardless of beliefs and ethnicities, however, we can see from this image that there is active violence and tensions throughout societies. The aggression conveyed within this picture of the law versus the individual, suggests that America is conflicted on their ideals and the divided social political views within the state.
