Description
Mission District Mural dedicated to the fallen youth.
This organization out of Santa Cruz was founded to prevent gang violence amongst inner-city ethnic youth. An evolving grass-roots organization that grew out of the Mexican-American civil rights and anti-war movements of the 1960s and 1970s, Barrios Unidos harnessed the power of culture and spirituality to rescue at-risk young people, provide avenues to quell gang warfare, and offer a promising model for building healthy and vibrant multicultural communities.

This is great and I love the message too.
I sure wish I could relate on some level to this but it makes me want to pull back and move on. I spend 18 years raising my kids in gang territory and I've seen enough first-hand. This mural is so sad and so hopeless... but a good shot!
Super cool. 5+! Thanks.
Nice tribute...Stamp out gang wars... Aloha
