Fonda’s description of his use of the
US flag, and how it affected
American culture:
“I
got the idea for the flag on the back of my jacket from John Wayne,” said
Fonda, referring to the movie American Tiger. “I wore that
jacket around the streets of LA every night on my bike. And I got stopped
by the police every night for defaming the American flag. A year after
Easy Rider was released there was a flag on every police jacket, their
cars, and their equipment!” |
