    Throughout these many years, I am born during the year that claims me to be a millennial child; a millennial is someone who is approximately born around early 1980s to early 2000s. I have experienced the uprising of technology, diversity, and the exploration of art for the masses. As an art major I have been to various galleries and seen various arts through media and the affects it has on consumerism. However, this discussion draws my attention to The Great Wall of Los Angeles in relation to Judith Baca’s work on it.

    The battle of good versus evil isn't always black and white, what one feels internally doesn't always reflect their actions. What represents good and evil, it's arbitrary, it's based on customs, culture, and legends. Evil can be custom made just as much as Good can. In “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” by Robert Louis, the esteemed Dr. Jekyll battles with his darker self, this reflects humanity's struggle between selfish desires and the desire to do good by others.…
