Graffiti

          Graffiti has had a huge and obvious impact on history in America and throughout the world. Its impacted things from clothing companies to music, video games to movies, etc. Graffiti has been around for so long, it's hard to tell when it really started. Wikipedia said the earliest form of graffiti was seen in 30,000 BC.

Graffiti/street art has really impacted me as well. I have a huge interest in graffiti and the artists behind the pieces they do.

The fact that America can not except street art as ART is really confusing to me. I understand there are those people that ruin it and give graffiti a bad name by doing racist things with it or cruel things. But there is a lot of street art that is very artistic and beautiful.

I really wish the world would start to see that.

    I completely agree! Though yes some places are not appropriate to graffiti, but for the most part the artwork is very interesting and appealing to see.

    I think Graffiti is pretty awesome that is if it has nothing to do with those stupid gangs putting their little gang names on the walls. I think some people just don't understand that there are so many different types of art and this is one of them!
