It’s on Highway 80 in Pearl, Mississippi.
The billboard appears to depict a moment from the civil rights era and has the words “Make America Great Again” on it.
It’s placed on a Lamar Advertising billboard. The display says that the signage was paid for by For Freedoms. It also says the billboard was not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee.
The original photo dates back to 1965, to a day known as “Bloody Sunday,” according to PRNewswire. Police and protesters faced off over voting rights in Selma, Alabama…

Governor Phil Bryant has seen the billboard and calls it reprehensible according to Mississippi News Now.
“It’s disappointing that this group would use this image as an attempt to divide the country,” said Bryant.
