Museum of Us, San Diego

It's been a few days and I can't stop thinking about these exhibits. I had been looking forward to it but this place more than exceeded my expectations. The exhibits are well curated and laid out. While I enjoyed exploring this place at the time, I wasn't even conscious of how incredibly interactive everything was and how that helped me understand concepts more deeply and made me think about them later. The cannibals: myths and realities exhibit is a unique one, especially, with pop culture references to draw folks in and thought provoking historical context that remains relevant.

Very interesting and informative experience. Non white-washed historical facts. For instance, I didn't know how anti-Asian San Diego had been in it's heydays. I thought the hate had always been towards Latinos over here. Apparently, Asians have been able to get over such hate to become the preferred race by Whites. Good for them! Maybe local Latinos can follow suit. The tower tour is highly recommended, especially on nice sunny days. The views from up there are worth the price of the tour itself.
