ABSTRACT
Globalization is perhaps most explicitly marked in the print that is alive for the taking. There are large and small billboards advertising tequila from Jalisco, Samsung phone service, and direct TV. This chapter explores where to place B-Club and its participants into a larger context: both the immediate community around the school and the larger world from which its residents have come. Most of the undergraduate student participants at B-Club grew up in California, in diverse geographical, social, cultural, and class locations. Many were children of immigrants themselves and spoke more than one language, or a language other than English in their childhood. The streets that kids walked through to get to school every day, and then home after B-Club, are filled with signs and symbols of globalization. The chapter discusses the differences in our vantage points and interests that became obvious through our photographs.
