Berger argues that photographs of the civil rights movement were used by white press to convey blacks as powerless to feed the white racial power. I agree with Berger as we can clearly see similarities within the photographs that were published: defenseless black restrained by white supremacy. Since photographs of violences catch more attention, it is no doubt that publishers use these kinds of images. This results in an adverse effect on the movement as it promotes violence against black while alleviating white anxieties.
