Field trips
Centro Cultural de la Raza-
The history behind this building is very interesting. This place used to be a storage tank for water.Then the explored pipes and so then it was empty.Then 40 years ago they decided to turn it into a cultral center.Now they use this place for art,dance,singing &drumming.
I think this is a very cool place. I think i like the mural because it has a dark and a bright side to it. I would recommend people to go there because of the beautiful paintings.They have so many stuff there you can look at.
Chicano Park-
The history behind chicano park is kind of like a miracle to all of the mexicans that lived there. Back then when mexicans went from mexico to the U.S.A they came to california. The soil where chicano park is now is where mexican immigrants used to live.Then they said that there were going to knock down all the houses a make a police station,but the mexicans said no we want a park where our kids to play in. They got in a strike and they got the park than the police station.
I think this is a wonderful place to visit because it has so much history behind it and it a park that bring family together. Also my parent and grandparent grow up around this park so it kind of means something to them.They also have amazing paintings and artist that are there.I think it also a place where you can get a piece of quiet if you want to relax.The only problem is that there is a freeway on top and on both sides of chicano park.
