Description

"Micah Wright . . . uses art to shock us into resistance to war. He does this by outrageously juxtaposing the images of 'the good war' with the ugly realities of war in our time."-Howard Zinn

"If You're Not a Terrorist... Then Stop Asking Questions"! is the hilarious follow-up to Micah Ian Wright's hit debut, "You Back The Attack! We'll Bomb Who We Want"! In "If You're Not a Terrorist "Wright again teams up with the Center for Constitutional Rights to create a stellar send-up of the Administration's War at Home. Wright' s ironically "remixed" full-color World War???era propaganda posters combine with critical political commentary to deliver a scabrous take on the State of the Union. Taking aim at corporate corruption, the Bush White House, media bias, Ashcroftian legislation, embedded reporters, our one-party system, the American prison industry, the upcoming 2004 presidential elections and super-patriotism Wright is a sure shot. Veteran investigative journalist Greg Palast contributes an introduction to this lampooning of our public mis-leaders.
