What If Norman Rockwell Went To Ferguson?

When the nightly news shows white cops policing the hell out of a black community, complete with tear gas and armored vehicles, it's hard to see the idyllic vision Rockwell had for us.


In his painting "The Runaway," Rockwell envisioned a young boy confiding in a friendly police officer at a diner. Anthony Freda reimagined what it would look like today. Tough to trust someone in riot gear.







Anthony Freda created this parody of Norman Rockwell's "The Runaway." Check out his other illustrations!
