Title: Controversial photo.
Description: The Southern Baptist Sunday School Board recalled an entire press run -- over 160,000 copies -- of an education quarterly before distribution in order to replace this photograph and the article it illustrated. Officials of the Board considered the article, "A Ministry of Reconciliation" by Mrs. Twyla Wright of Arizona, and the photo "potentially inflammatory" and directed a "revision" of the Jan.-March issue of "Becoming," along with a corresponding teachers' guide.
