On October 21, 2015, our class was assigned to do an observation of humanity and all living entities outside our school. The excursion was from American Indian Public Charter School II to Lake Merritt.
Along the way, our class noticed that Oakland was bustling with activity. Business (stores) was overflowed with customers, local citizens were jogging, animal- life was consuming the mere crumbs on the concrete, and the Oakland Museum of California was occupied by a diverse group of possible tourists.

Laney College
As time elapsed, we went outside of Laney College, where many of my classmates relatives went for college. We were told of the magnificent history of Laney and the buildings near Laney College’s vicinity.
OMCA
We also went to the Oakland Museum of California (OMCA). We learned the engrossing history of OMCA. We were told that this museum was one of the most diverse museums worldwide. OMCA is also a museum dedicated to the art, history, and natural science of California. Once I realized how great our city actually was, I overlooked the fact that Oakland is the 3rd most violent city in America.
Nature
Lastly and most importantly, I admired the nature of Oakland. If you remained silent without uttering a single word, you were able to hear the birds chirping, the wind blowing, and you would be able to contemplate the beauty of nature. It was truly a magnificent sight, and one to never be forgotten.
