Those of you who live in Los Angeles may remember a little 14 acre garden at the edge of the area formerly known as ‘South Central Los Angeles’. This is what it looked like from 1992 till about the end 2007.

It really was a little gem in the area until it was lost. It was the lifeblood of immgrants in the area who occupied the area in the post la-riots neighborhood. This farm/garden sustained families…

The Big Picture: Opening Day

  • and said:

point well taken!….however

its true that it is ignorant to label the whole country of china as freedom hating and evil- for even implying that the whole country and its people are evil i am gravely sorry because i do not believe that.

as a mexican citizen i have to say my comments have very little to do with american politics. and i do stand by my comments that the chinese government is committing evils to human rights and that they are probably hiding some. for that matter i feel that most countries of the world do commit evil acts. now whether or not this opinion makes me progressive or not i really dont care, its my opinion and in addition i dont feel that this is racist. i have plenty of criticisms about the usa as well as most of the worlds countries who have also committed and commit great wrongs against humanity- so dont feel im targeting china-

now, i feel that the citizens of the world are good people, its just the governments of the world including my home mexico are twisted and corrupt. its up to individuals to live good lives and surpass the wrongs of their home land. its up to every person to contribute something good.

as an architect/urbanist many of my criticisms are about how urban planning over the world polarizes the poor and puts them at great disadvantage. part of the reason i love this magazine is that it tells the stories of people- individuals. and when it does comment on government its very frank.

oh yea, im not a member of the staff so dont think that the people of good magazine share my ideas— in fact im pretty sure they dont. at the end of the day im just a architect listening to himself type.

and to tell you the truth the reason i bought my very first copy of good was for the pretty aesthetics!

as i was watching the opening ceremonies i was also floored by the eye candy. as i sat mesmerized my brain woke up and i got to thinking, the nazis put up a spectacular show for their time. so china obviously is doing some great evils to human rights and there are probably greater ones we dont even know about, this kind of show of power in numbers of people was actually a little scary – almost militant. whereas the nazis show of display was outright nationalistic and militant and creepy, the display of china seemed to be hiding “freedom-hating” by confucius and 1/4 mile rollup led screens.

china, masking its greater evils by tickling our ears and eyes all the way to the end of the olympics, all the while numbing us all a little more to atrocities of human-rights.

bu-hao! (very bad)
