News 8 looks into the history of Barrio Logan, and what it's like today. We revisit Chicano Park and look at the vibrant arts scene and small businesses.
I remember on 2004 I was running with a Puerto Rican basketball jersey. I got jumped. It didn't matter if my mom is Mexican. It wasn't easy being half Puerto Rican and Mexican. But now it's definitely gotten better. I feel confident while I go there. Because I am proud to be Half Mexican. Because I know what I believe in myself and my heritage

My dad ( RIP ) was 1 of many people who helped in the making of CHICANO PARK.
Grew up in Logan heights I miss that neighborhood
I grew up at Logan in the 80's and 90's by Porkyland tortilleria. It was tough times back then.
A lot of the new businesses are strange to me. I like that more Mexicans are building & owning their own businesses to combat the hipsters.
You forgot tacos el trompo right next to 4 milpas
That’s originally Rivas taco shop 😎
Victor was my art teacher over at the Maac project in Chula Vista
I took a Chicano Studies class from him at Grossmont College in the 90's.
@@L.Spencer good dude. Loved and I mean loved art
Un abrazo yohualli 🖤 hermoso
Let’s not forget this was and is Indian land. Don’t look into the past without forgetting that
All the way to the bay? Chicano culture stops there at the bay?
No, wtf??? All the way to the bay was what they were fighting for to stay barrio Logan.
Gente fication
Don't forget the white hipsters are now coming in.
