In AIS this week we had the pleasure of going downtown to look at some cultural architecture and see The Crucible at the Stephan Wolf Theatre and when we went downtown i didnt really know what we were goign to do down there but when they said we were gonna like walk around and look at buildings i was like wow this is gonna be boring looking at old dirty buildings all day but when they said that we were looking at Native American architecture it just didnt strike me that there would ever be a numerous amount of hidden architecture aroudn the city. So when we went around and looked at the architecture i feel bad now bc i kinda again like many people do all day, looked over this beautiful and puzzling picture and i didnt really understand what was going on and it was cold and i wanted to get a starbucks so i kinda just looked at it and kept walking. But in class on thursday when we went back over the pictures and had to decide what they meant or symbalized it realyl striked my interest. Like for example those two statues in the park of the Native American on a horse with a head dress and how the tribes that inhabited the mid west NEVER wore head dress's seemed astronomical too me b/c u would never suspect a huge statue that took so much time and effort and plannign to end up ebing politcially and culturally incorrect and all the sterotypes we saw in the architecture really made me have a deeper understand for the native americans and how they really kinda started america in a way and there is never really much reference too them and with thanksgiving coming up i hope we can learn a little more about the true meaning of thanksgiving.
