2. At 39:54, the woman is discussing how she loves the mixing of all the people who celebrate the day of the dead; how many places around the world have community day of the dead celebrations? Does it spread to other continents? Should it?
3. On page 310 of Amelia Mesa-Bains’ “El Mundo Femenino,” Baca’s murals are described as multiracial and Chicano chronicles of history. They involve art and community and end up telling a powerful story. In what ways is this similar to the community celebrations of things like the day of the dead?
