GEORGIA---Controversial artwork with the words "God is dead" has been removed from the wall of a Newton County high school after attracting worldwide attention. The posters, featuring a quote from the Arthur Miller play "The Crucible," were displayed at Alcovy High School as part of a language arts project. Crystal Mitchell complained that the artwork upset her 10th grade daughter. Earlier this month, Newton County school district officials told FOX 5 that they would not remove the artwork, saying that the poster reflects literature and is not an attack on religion. However, this week Mitchell said that the artwork was removed. A district spokesperson told FOX 5, "The teacher made the decision to remove the art work until such time that she teaches the American literature course and 'The Crucible' as part of the associated curriculum."
