Lebron the Mad Brute and Giselle the Helpless Beauty?

I just thought I would post the images of Lebron and Gisele that we saw in class for further discussion here. Note for clarification: It isn't an anti war poster, it's a World War I propaganda poster that encourages enlisting in the Army.






I definitely understand how this has been interpreted as a racist image. I also suspect that Annie Leibovitz was aware of the World War I poster. I wish she would talk about it publicly. Maybe she will address it in her upcoming book, "Annie Leibovitz at Work," which will be released in November.
