I had a great time learning and exploring the community of North Salinas.

Race surrounds us and circles us like a carousel. We all hop onto the ride of life and watch the various animals gravitate upwards and downwards. Kids will be screaming‚ but somehow the music can drown them out. As the music slows‚ so does the ride and then it is done. Adults flock to their children‚ and they all leave.

Even in public places we tend to ignore people of a different race‚ religion or class. It is said but someone we consider our peer we are more likely to acknowledge.
