The Voice of the People

Narco Nation Graffiti. Tucson, Arizona, 2013

Urban graffiti and murals are the voice of the people…at least those people who feel marginalized and ignored by the politics-as-usual system we have in place. Can we call it a corporatocracy? Money = Influence. Et cetera. It pays to listen to these colorful voices who are speaking up with their art…Listen…Understand…Act.

I especially like the “Narco Nation” segment above. And why has the dialogue bubble by the Rosie the Riveter woman been censored (perhaps by someone who disagreed)?
