Commercial U.S. culture exported around the world is resented by many as \"cultural imperialism.\"  <br><br> The best moment I had while passing these flyers out came when a young man took one, stopped in his tracks laughing, and said \"This is great! I WORK for Disney!\" <br><br> To view other socially conscious artworks, visit the \"Art For A Change\" website.<\/p>\n","contact":"vallen@art-for-a-change.com","link":"www.art-for-a-change.com","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","summary":"Flyers passed out at the Hollywood antiwar march & rally.","numcomment":9,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/2003\/02\/hollywood4.jpg","filesize":"23.1 kibibytes","article_url":"\/news\/2003\/02\/29761.php","image":{"original":"\/uploads\/2003\/02\/hollywood4.jpg","small":"\/uploads\/2003\/02\/hollywood4.jpgthumb.jpg"}},"attachments":[],"comments":[{"id":29771,"heading":"and this","article":"one i saw","author":"fresca","parent_id":29761,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","created":"2003-02-18 06:32:10","modified":"2005-08-15 01:11:34","fileurl":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2003\/02\/war.jpg47zxwv.jpg","image":{"original":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2003\/02\/war.jpg47zxwv.jpg"}},{"id":29784,"heading":"Please, go fight in it","article":"Fresca, why don't you go to Iraq and try to kill Saddam yourself?
