I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

- NEWFER_150110_05.JPG: Protesting Ferguson:
Ferguson has become a one-word rallying cry for debate about race relations and the use of deadly force by police in America.
The recent grand jury decisions not to indite white police officers for the deaths of black men in Ferguson, Mo., and New York ignited outrage across the country following months of protests over the killings of the unarmed men.
In August 2014, Michael Brown, 18, was killed by a police officer in Ferguson who said he stopped Brown for jaywalking but shot him in a confrontation after linking him to a nearby theft. Eric Garner, 43, died the previous month when a New York police officer put him in a chokehold after stopping him on suspicion of selling untaxed cigarettes.
In scenes that evoke the anti-war and civil rights movements of the 1950s and 1960s, protesters are using their First Amendment rights to assemble and petition for change.
News coverage of a protests has sparked a national debate about race and the criminal justice system.

- Description of Subject Matter: Make Some Noise
By Dinah Douglas, assistant Web writer
WASHINGTON — The Newseum opened two new exhibits Aug. 2 on the U.S. civil rights movement that highlighted the contributions and struggles of students.
With the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington approaching on Aug. 28, the timely exhibits underscore how organizers in the movement used the media to garner public support.
"Make Some Noise: Students and the Civil Rights Movement" takes visitors through a timeline of events that defined the movement and its student organizers, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). ....
Adjacent to "Make Some Noise," the "Civil Rights at 50" exhibit of newspaper front pages and magazine covers, captures the turbulence of the 1963 through events such as the Children's Crusade in Birmingham, Ala., and the assassination in Mississippi of civil rights leader Medgar Evers. The display shows media coverage as it really happened, including press biases and prejudices. "Civil Rights at 50" will be updated in 2014 and 2015.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
