What is Happening Here?
My first time to 20th St. I went to get groceries from a chinese grocery store
and noticed chinese restaurants too...
20th St Also has African Restaurants...
and there are lots of churches
maybe to help heal?
20th St. West also has pawn shops, cash loans stores and other stores defining the neighborhood as "poor"
How do these shops shape the identity of the people that live there?
Youth perspective of 20th St W:
What Could Happen Here?
- The community could be rejuvenated
- Diversity could be celebrated in a real way
- 20th St W children could grow up knowing and believing in antiracism
- It could be a community of trust
