When news media company Fusion and its creative agency SS+K launched the “As American As” campaign, they expected images like gay men kissing, a drag queen standing on her stoop and an African American baby wearing a “black lives matter” t-shirt to spark a public conversation about diversity and inclusion in America. What they didn’t expect were for those images to be rejected outright in some of the most cosmopolitan places in America—even on a building in New York’s Lower East Side. In response to the censorship detailed below, Fusion and SS+K created a new billboard in Manhattan—this time with the censored images crossed out. “X marks the spot of censorship,” the billboard says. “See the images America wasn’t ready for.”
