Letter: Norman Rockwell Revisited in 2026

Letter: Norman Rockwell Revisited in 2026

Dear editor:

In 1964 Norman Rockwell painted “The Problem We All Live With”, an iconic image of a black child going to school surrounded by four US marshals. On Saturday March 14, 2026  in Coral Springs, Florida  on University Drive an indelible image that could rightfully be called “The Problem We All Live With Today” eerily replicated Rockwell’s genius when a Chabad mother pushing a baby carriage with a small child walking beside her was closely accompanied by a heavily armed south Florida law enforcement officer as she walked from her home to pray at shul.

A nearly identical real life replication of Rockwell’s genius that reflects the effect of nearly thirty years of left wing/ progressive politicians, journalists and academics believing they can coddle and excuse Islamic terrorists rather than destroy the evil that they represent.
