Graffiti... more than just a piece of art

Well in my opinion as a graphic designer graffiti is art, and around the word have become like a weapon to fight against government, violence, racism and pollution the perfect example is Syria and Egypt. Graffitis around the world are very different in some places like Argentina is something legal that you only need the permission to paint if the owner agree with you to do it, but for example in Guatemala is very dangerous make graffitis. On the other hand in Brasil there are two famous artist that Yale embrace it their piece of art, and they are very famous.
But in my opinion the place where graffiti have the biggest impact in society is Argentina, because is a positive impact, the artist are happy and free to do their art, but in some places is dangerous and very complicated, and for me the more important thing is life, and if you are going to be murdered for that is not worth it.

Racism

As a person that lived at Venezuela, i think that if Maria Rondon have the opportunity to watch the video from racism in Colombia may she would feel proud about us, because we are doing something about that, but in Venezuela the situation is getting worst, because not only the racism is something that affects this country but also the discrimination and the intolerance between the political parties affects Venezuela.
As a Colombian in the other hand i don't feel very proud of the racism in the past, but now the most importan is that we are doing something to fight this problem and eradicate once for all.
