Pin 131872 United States Everett
English (English)
Here is the sign marking the entrance to one of Everett High School's several buildings. Unlike other "public" bodies in the area, nothing around the high school seems to show navigation of its campus, which tells others that students are expected to know which building is which. With that in mind, perhaps there's resources given out to students to help them understand what is where, which might give a better chance at given non-English speakers easier access to material they need.

Several tags have been lined up on top of one-another on this building. All of them seem to be in English, and it makes me wonder if there are any pieces of street art, graffiti or otherwise, that is in another language in this area. Do immigrants live anywhere in downtown Everett? Perhaps not. Ling study EDC&I

Here is a sign for what I believe to be a restaurant with live music. They will be hosting a live band that's showcasing someone with a Spanish name. The music for the referred album is classic rock with English lyrics. Once again, downtown Everett broadly offers the aesthetic of immigrant/cross-culture influence, but seemingly is absent of them.

A sticker sits near a crosswalk. Like most of the graffiti surrounding the area, the language is only English, though the message still communicates a level of class-unity. Pieces of graffiti in the area only protest wealth, and not specific struggles of being part of a certain group outside of that, whether that be immigrants or not. Ironically enough, the protest stickers echo the same way the restaurants do, as a place that is disconnected with anything resembling an immigrant population in any regard. Ling study EDC&I
