Event Description La Casa del Tunel: Art Center in collaboration with Studio for Southern California History, Los Angeles California and as part of the FESTIVAL DE LA CIUDAD INTERZONA TIJUANA presents in a 75’ X 4’ (printed mural timeline) that integrates visitor participation. This exhibit investigates moments in Southern California history that led to legislative reform, as well as episodes of vigilantism and mob behavior in the form of riots and/or rebellions. This exhibit explores both the importance of clarity in defining terms over time and why different historical agents may interpret the same event in diametrically opposed ways. This exhibit looks at the role of civil disobedience and how law enforcement reacted to such instances of protest, from the arrest of Upton Sinclair in 1923 for reading The Bill of Rights at an International Workers of the World labor protest, to the 2007 May Day march in which officers are charged with using excessive force on journalists and participants in the protest. Law & Disorder delineates the differences between de facto and de juris forms of policy and behavior. Finally, this exhibit explores more hidden forms of crime within our society including human trafficking, gang formations, disability rights, and crimes against children.
