|description_of_content=Three different paintings were on display at the County building for National Hispanic Heritage Month. They featured vivid colors depicting sun, water, and trees as well as nude figures. A nude woman sitting and standing, and a full frontal person.
|description_of_incident=The County Board of Supervisors were accused of violating the first amendment right of the artists by asking them to remove the three specific paintings that contained nudity. The request of removal stemmed from complaints from people who visited the building.
|description_of_result=Government officials did not see their actions as unconstitutional. They disregarded the space as being a public forum. In November 2013, the ACLU of SoCal(on behalf of Jimenez) sued the County of San Bernardino. Jimenez won the case and the County agreed to show his artwork for National Hispanic Heritage Month.

'''Artist:''' Stanley Kubrick (1928 - 1999)
 
'''Confronting Bodies:''' Local police authorities and the concerned public
 
'''Date of Action:''' 1974
 
'''Location:''' Great Britain
 
'''Description of Artwork:''' The film, based on a book of the same name, takes place in a future England and follows a teenaged gang leader who enjoys rape and ultraviolence. He volunteers for a rehabilitation program which removes his desire for violence, but leaves him suicidal. <P>
[[File:Kubrick2.jpg|right]]
'''The Incident:''' The British Board of Film Censors (BBFC) had released the film uncut with the X rating, but received a number of complaints that the film would damage society by inspiring teenagers to violence. Through out 1972 and 1973, police linked cases of teenage violence to ''Clockwork Orange''. Simply having the culprit admit to reading the book was enough proof for the public that the film was a bad influence.    <P>
In response to the uproar it was causing in Britain, Kubrick had the film withdrawn from the country, even though it had already been running for 61 weeks there. <P>
 
'''Results of Incident:''' It was not until Kubrick's death in 1999 that the film was legally permitted to be shown in Britain. <P>
