Danza Indigenas is outdoor artwork at the station by Chicana artist Judy Baca which includes a concrete footpath that represents ceremonial steps performed by early California inhabitants, the Gabrielino and Chumash Indians. [6] The monument bears several engraved statements whose origins are not attributed. In mid-2005, "Save Our State", an anti-illegal immigration group based in Ventura County, launched a series of protests over an inscription –It was better before they came – that Save Our State claimed was directed against whites. According to Baca, that sentence was uttered by a white Baldwin Park politician in the 1950s; he was lamenting the influx of persons of Mexican ancestry into the San Gabriel Valley following World War II. The protests drew counter-protesters, and required city expenditure on crowd control and riot police, an admitted goal of Save Our State. [4] [7]
