(The Hill) A Mississippi mayor announced Friday that he has asked the billboard company behind a controversial anti-Donald Trump billboard along a local highway to take down the sign.
The billboard, paid for by an artist-run super PAC called For Freedoms, displays an image from the “Bloody Sunday” conflict on Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Ala., during the civil rights movement with Trump’s campaign slogan “Make America Great Again” written over it.
In an interview with the Pacific Tribune, For Freedoms founder Hank Willis Thomas said the billboard was meant to start a conversation and point out that America was great when people fought for what they believe in.
