It featured, among other things, a cut out picture of Jesus–something he reportedly thought applicable to the environment, and the assignment.School officials however, felt otherwise. The rejected a first version of the poster and folded Antonio’s second attempt in half, in order to obscure the image of a kneeling Jesus they thought to be too religious in nature.In 2000, a New York federal court ruled that the school had the right to censor the poster on the grounds of separation of church and state.”
