The Prejudice Project has text across the top, "Don't Be A Man For Just A Minute. Be A Man Your Whole Life," (written by Davis) and aimed at the Minutemen, the controversial group of "patriotic" armed volunteers who have begun guarding the US border against illegal immigration. The text is written in the font and style of American Army recruitment posters. Below the text there is a panoramic view of the border from the US side, and the head (backside view) of a man in a military camoflauge t-shirt looking toward Tijuana. |
