<p>Then, 1950s:</p>

<p>Now:</p>

<p>A reader, German Viking, explains the provenance of the second photo:</p>
|
|
<blockquote><p>This photo was from a story on American and European women going to African and Caribbean countries for sex holidays.</p></blockquote>
|
|
<p>What I really liked about this “Ameriqua, Then and Now” contrast was how it seems in the 1950s photo the handsome family is a metaphor for their nation, happy and full of promise for the future as they walk confidently toward the viewer.</p>
|
|
<p>In the second photo, the couple walks away from the viewer, a metaphor for an America receding, turning her back on her people, full of fatty desperation and, well, Africa.</p>
