    I agree with all except too much sports. Sports are such an interwoven part of American society, I'm thinking adding a couple more (and swapping out Jordan, either for a different Jordan shot or another sports shot) would have been fine. There are good suggestions elsewhere here too, like adding the OKC bombing and natural disaster photos (whether it be Katrina or some other disaster). Some of the photos like the last one and the 1978 Freedom Parade and the 1996 Black Teen photo seemed to be added because, well, civil rights. Not that they aren't important, but top 57 important? To me, Woodstock would have been more important to add.
    Maybe this needed to be 76 pics or something, since I'm not quite getting why 57 was chosen.

    The editor really loves Heinz ketchup.
