Migrants in the City- Plaza MexicanaFor this assignment, we were asked to find a place in the beautiful city of Phoenix that represented a cultural border of the US and another country. We were asked to immerse ourselves in this border zone; taking notes, interacting with people there, taking pictures, etc. I immediately thought of a Mexican strip mall on Greenway Parkway, just West of SR 51. This strip mall was built on a dirt lot, and became a Mexican oasis completely different than anything else around it. This strip mall is called Plaza Mexicana. Here, the people all speak Spanish, and look Latino. Not a gringa/o in sight!
