This image would be an empowering image for the people of the neighborhood because it celebrates their specific culture, history, and identity. Like Trevor Noah says, ghettos are often places where people feel stuck and hopeless because they did not choose to be there. This image transforms the ghetto from a colorless place of repression to a vibrant place of power and beauty. ]]> 2020-10-10 21:36:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/818939785 jnallen1 https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899329500 2020-11-06 22:24:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899329500 jnallen1 https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899332130 2020-11-06 22:25:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899332130 jnallen1 https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899334301 2020-11-06 22:27:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899334301 jnallen1 https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899338527 2020-11-06 22:30:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/899338527 jmdeem https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900379666 The murals on the cooling towers depict positive scenes of everyday life and achievement among the local community. The fact that this art is on cooling towers that provide the power that is essential for modern life allows the people to define themselves as essential in the same way. They are a vital part of the lifeblood of the community just the same way the power from the plant provides life. It shows that they are essential and here to stay. ]]> 2020-11-07 19:28:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900379666 https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900379955 This makes me think of Clarion Alley in San Francisco, which is in the Mission District. Generally, the term alley would conjure feelings of danger or being unwelcoming for me, but having one be a tourist destination is a positive reframe.]]> 2020-11-07 19:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900379955 https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900383646 2020-11-07 19:32:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900383646 cmaldonadolopez https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900386916 2020-11-07 19:35:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jnallen1/obvzksy6jb9founf/wish/900386916
