I agree that it's fine, though not great, mostly because of the red (I like a Parade logo to reflect the time period - I particularly like the one with the U.S. flag stars and the Confederate flag stars).

I also think the hanging is the shadow that is cast over the whole story (and has been a visible shadow in the productions I have seen - if you knew by history the story, it was more than just a tree). He's not just sentenced to hang, but it was more of a lynching and the story follows the details of what led up to that.

That said, being this week, it happens to be poor timing, though the public forgets quickly (and I don't think the "special little snowflake" applies here, but it certainly happens).
