Please don't white wash

Hi folks, the riots affected ethnically Mexican and black people, so the picture of two white men in zoot suits seems out of place. Anyone have an alternative picture that better represents the actual event? Farazars (對話) 02:14, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

You are quite right about the tragic racist riots. However note that this photo is not about the riots. This is a photo of some men wearing "zoot suits" in the era when they were a fashion trend. While the fashion was most popular with African American and Mexican American men, it was not restricted to them. All the photos which Wikimedia currently has of zoot suits are in Category:Zoot_suits If you can find and add additional free-licensed historical photos, you are encouraged to please do so, thank you. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (對話) 18:52, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
