Mount Royal University Graffiti Review
I photographed this graffiti in one of the stairwells at Mount Royal University in Calgary, AB. This really caught my eye because it deals with a subject that we have been thoroughly discussing in one of my classes. That topic is the systemic discrimination against the First Nations people of Canada. Aboriginals in any part of the world have a rich cultural heritage and strong ties to the past. Sadly, the history of Aboriginal Canadians is a story of oppression and marginalization. That's why I am proud to celebrate native culture in today's graffiti review. It is good to see positive messages out there for a change!

I am pretty stoked on your message but I think you need to work on your visual style. I understand that you may have been in a hurry to get it written and then get out of there before anyone saw you. Keep the positive messages flowing and work on your penmanship. Good job!
