I initially liked his face, but didn't like the crossed arm pose, but having seen photos from many different angles, and several of the quotes, especially the "From a mountain of despair, a stone of hope" quote right by his side, He now looks very resolute, instead of distancing.

I especially like how he is emerging from a wedge that is cut out of an entire small mountain off to the side. I really like that the quotes are from lesser known speeches and occasions, and I adore their messages of truth and love.

You feel threatened by a strong black role model, eh?

Interesting.

Obligatory "I hope they don't clean it with a fire hose" comment.

I don't find him scary, just that monument. It looks like something that belongs outside an ancient temple.

If it were Whitey McWhite standing there, all big with arms crossed, it would still be imposing.

He's pissed that Lincoln & Jefferson get houses while he has to stand out in the rain.

Lincoln even gets a chair!

The thing that annoys me is the 800k license fee by the family.
