Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Martin Luther King Jr. Street
Multicultural Diversity Mural Exhibition
This MLK day I thought I'd take the time out to stroll down MLK street with my son. I wanted to make a point of documenting all these multicultural murals I pass by everyday on the bus, but had never taken the time to examine up close.

[anyone know the story behind this one? recognize any of these folks? please share!]
[Peoples Park, Tacoma WA]GO OUT AND Enjoy this beautiful day!

by Thorax O'Tool on 1/18/2010 @ 7:04pm | Nice photos, but I see nearly no human life. |
by Erik on 1/18/2010 @ 7:13pm | Cool! |
by NineInchNachos on 1/18/2010 @ 7:55pm | there was human life. Just not the kind you see in a condo design sketch. |
by Thorax O'Tool on 1/18/2010 @ 10:32pm | gotcha |
by Altered Chords on 1/19/2010 @ 7:51am | Do you really need to be in pre school to roll down a hill? I think I can do it. Hill rolling contest anyone? Easier than bocce. |
by fredo on 1/19/2010 @ 9:50am | Why does the mural of the four black leaders have a urinal in the middle? That's just wrong. |
by Thorax O'Tool on 1/19/2010 @ 2:59pm | It's a water fountain.
Hey, does anybody know how the turnout to celebrate Robert Downey Junior day was? |
by NineInchNachos on 1/19/2010 @ 4:16pm | man all you guys are wrong.
it's a garden flower stand thingy. |
by Thorax O'Tool on 1/19/2010 @ 4:22pm | there are no flowers in January. |
by NineInchNachos on 1/19/2010 @ 4:44pm | which if you look would explain the absence of flowers in the flower box |
by jenyum on 1/19/2010 @ 5:22pm | It's the perfect size to roll down, if you are in preschool. I did not mean to in any way imply that one cannot roll down hills as one gets older. |
by ixia on 1/20/2010 @ 11:03am | Plenty of flowers in January, just gotta look! Try the winter garden at the Washington Park arboretum. Delicious! |
