Help me answer this trivia question

[midget]

Here’s the question: In the movie, “Do The Right Thing”, whose picture does Spike Lee’s character want placed on the wall of the pizza parlor?

Rather than renting this movie and making gratuitous use of the FF button, I figured I’d waste some thread space. Does anyone know the answer to this?

Thanks.

Wasn’t it a picture of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King shaking hands? I remember that picture was in the movie, but I don’t remember the exact situation.

IMDB is your friend. From the user comments:

The heatwave that is occurring along with a young black man’s [*Lee as “Mookie”] * quest to see black people on Sal’s “Wall of Fame”… As the riot comes to a close, however, the character Smiley walks into the pizzeria and hangs a picture of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. on the wall.

If the question is exactly as you’ve worded it, the answer would be “black people”. Having seen many sloppily-worded trivia questions in my day, I’d say you’d be more likely to score with MLK/Malcolm, though.
