I'd like the context of photo please. I am not history-learned. Only spark-notes-of-history-acquainted.

I'm not sure of the origin of the photo but it's been around for some years now as a meme showing how media can be manipulative.

Ah I understand now. I filtered out the two photos on the side, figuring they were just an aesthetic choice.
