I think people from other cultures contributing to a community is important because there are so many different cultures we can learn about. When everyone comes together, we can create something great! My culture is filipino and my grandparents were immigrants. I could teach my community about immigration. For example, in Judy Baca when they all came together to make a mural it was about all different kinds of people and people got to learn about all the different cultures that are in Los Angeles
