Description
"Overcoming barriers", Long Beach, 1996. 1800 Fashion Avenue and Parade streets, Long Beach. "It speaks visually of the needs and reasons people immigrate to the U.S.A. The United States, a nation founded by immigrants, has always been the promised land of hopes, dreams and opportunities. Many immigrants face barriers and negative stereotypes. “Overcoming Barriers” depicts ways immigrants break down barriers by their positive contributions to the economy, society and environment." Alex "Man One" Poli, artist. Sponsored by the S.Y.E.T.P. Mural Project. -- http://www.lataco.com/taco/overcoming-barriers-long-beach
