Firstly, I think that in Colombia, graffiti is used to remind the history of the country to the people, for example this kind of street shows that there was violence in Bogota many years ago.It is also used to show the beauty that somo indigenous groups have. In Argentina it is used to show some political and social statements that exist in this nation. In Buenos Aires, there are a lot of foreign street artists, so many of them make graffiti just to show their culture and the way they see the world. In Honduras it is used to tell the people how violence has affected many citizens´ way of life, because Tegucigalpa is one of the most dangerous cities over the world. It is also used to show how corrupt and irrespionsible politicians are. Finally in Brazil, graffiti is used to show the unconformity many people have to the corrupt politicians, ande the way governments use the environment.
These countries, as many Northern African countries, use graffiti to show to complain about the local governmet and what they have done. In conclusion, I think that governements must pay attention to the meaning these paintings have, because that may be the way they make local comunity feel happy and satisfied.
