Mural in unknown media on a side panel of a Chicano Park freeway column reads, "Thank You Gracias Tlazokamatl "Creator" Chicano Park Steering Committee Danzarte/Studio Kalo Mesa Central Chichimeca, Qto, MX Danza Mixcoatl Piltzin Auhuiliztli La Raza Rights Coalition Union del Barrio Brown Berets of Aztlan Cesar Chavez Center American Friends Service Committee Save Our Centro Coalition Luis Linares Tommie Camarillo/Familia Teresa Alvarez Cathy Puente/ Moni Love ([illegible]) Hermanos Pozzos Peabody Adelina Lopez Richard Gomez Marylou Valencia Eva Sandoval Tony Guzman Natalie Ramirez Mariana Ramirez Simon & Familia Teacher, Friend, Spirit My Daughter [illegible]". Small indigenous icons adorn the mural, which has a pink background. A poem on the lower portion of the mural reads, "Paint for me a pink sunset / So that I know that I am home..... / Keep dancing so that the drums / Guide me to my grandparents / The Earth is where I come from / And will be my return. With you / I will never die keep on, keep / Strong . Where there is justice / I will find my peace."
