I expected to see, but didn?t, the searing image of a white harasser at a 
protest in Boston, with a flagpole bearing an American flag and held like a 
spear, taking aim at the midsection of a black man who appears to be held 
helpless by another white man. Not all here is as awful as it seems, but the 
reality was bad enough and it made a stunning impression at the time. It 
became titled ?The Soiling of Old Glory?. I might have chosen it over one 
of, um, Bradley Cooper taking a selfie at the Oscars.

No two people will agree on the 100, but really?
