From racist billboards to the billboard charts – Ryan Bomberger’s rebranding
October 12, 2012Emerging anti-choice leader Ryan Bomberger took center stage mid-September at the Christian Right’s Values Voter Summit. Prior to walking on stage, Bomberger was introduced as an Emmy award-winning creative media professional, who was adopted by a Christian family after his biological mother, raped, carried him to term. After that compelling introduction, the lights dimmed as the mega screens displayed Bomberger’s recent work—an animated anti-Obama election short. For the politically conservative, largely Caucasian audience, this eased any concerns that Bomberger might be among the majority of African Americans in favor of President Obama’s reelection.
