Beautiful art can explain and tell a lot about a place, from where it came from; to where it will go. Art sometimes has history or even stories that it can tell its self. Lots of them can be shown and described as how it looked in the past years. Art doesn't have to tell you a story, it can also be to express the persons emotions and actions. Some of the pictures are about our history that we've had here in Houston. It illustrates the argument that we had and how some people reacted to it. The Hispanics and the African Americans wanted to have the same equal of rights, as the Americans. As this pictures start to fade a way we should put more tough and try to fix them. So the next generations can see what there ancestors have done for them. 
De La Raza en Los Estados Unidos 1848-1873
This paper was drawn in the same wall where they drew the people wanting the same rights. So in my educated guess I think that this had to do with the rights of the Hispanics and the African Americans. The dates that this paper has are real and something like that happen. Its very interesting how back then in that time, they couldn't do the things that we can do now. Does are the things that made the life we have now thanks to the pass generations.
This art that is shown below is telling about friendship, culture, and random fruit which it reminds me of thanksgiving. The piece of art in the very right says "No Olvides Tus Raices" meaning don't forger your roots. The one with the dove and the hands represents friendship, because it has 2 hands holding a dove and the broken mirror shining out.
