"one small patch for man one giant patch for mankind"

The Keep on Crossin' Project

"Keep on Crossin..." is a political provocation aimed at the heart of the California experience. Did I say heart? I really mean corazon. Ever since Eureka became our state motto, waves of immigrants have crossed these borders to pursue a piece of the dream as they understand it. In the process they have added their laughter and tears to the drama of our common history.

In honor of those innumerable crossings we offer this icon as a kind of mascot for the crossing masses. His name: R. Carumba. His journey begins in a land both far away and close at hand. If you happen to meet him in the street some day, treat him with respect. He brings mojo to all good girls and boys who believe in his eternal wisdom.

Orale,

Perry Vasquez
