Description
Four thousand years of Filipino and Filipino-American history. The design is divided into two parts. The first is historical, leading up to the awakening of Filipino national and political consciousness. The second part is dominated by a huge bird with significant Filipino Americans on its wings, the farmworkers on the bottom, and the youth and community on the right. The mural faces a large community garden.
