It doesn’t.
The Armenian American Museum and Cultural Center (AAM) is planned to be built across from the Central Library in downtown Glendale. The Museum envisions an iconic design that will depict the rock formations and mountain range found in Armenia. Alajajian-Marcoosi Artchitects described the design as also capturing the sensation one gets from the San Gabriel Mountains rising to the north of Glendale.

Yeah, they had to cynically slip reference to the San Gabriel’s in there to keep it from getting too perversely inappropriate. But remember the Native Americans who used to live here?
Instead, one special-interest ethnicity gets all the attention. And the public space and money.
They might as well start renaming the streets.
Goes with the comfort women statue and to point out we’re such a nasty nation. Wait it all happened in their home countries?
It’s called pandering to people with money.

I gave up on Glendale years ago. I avoid driving through that disaster as much as possible.
Just don’t forget our very own STALIN statue at 5 Points!!!
Imported …no less.
Was that the fancy one from Italy?
But, of course it is.
Absolutely NO similarities to any pictures of Dr. Burbank.
Another Not-Yet-Gonski Project.
Where’s Going Nuts when you need him?
Yes ethnicity gets all the attention because of Democrat identity politics. Stop dividing us we are not Colors we are Americans.
I have to buy some pacifiers. Finally I know what the crying liberals really need.
President of AFL / CIO says President Trum is better on trade than Obama was
Congratulations on the GOP wins last night #MAGA all that elitist liberal Hollywood money was rejected, again. Rich Democrats need to stop the resist thing.
PROCEED FULL SPEED AHEAD MR PRESIDENT. The polls are as wrong as they were in the general election
“And this has to do with Glendale how?”
Glendale has the largest population of Armenians outside of Armenia – that is how.
Here go through the list and get outraged over each and EVERY one – because the ultimate hypocrisy would be to rationalize some but not others:

There’s nothing historical or national in import and influence about the Armenian presence in Glendale to warrant the expenditure of public money. It’s hardly the Harlem Renaissance over there.
Your list is mostly privately funded institutions, and on private property. The ones that aren’t have a longtime historical tie-in.
Yes, Armenians deserve public recognition in Glendale with a fancy taxpayer subsidized museum. Hispanics and Native Americans can get lost.
It’s a travesty. No one’s gonna go there anyway.
Hurray!!!
Al in So Cal can read, cut & paste.
What an ass–et
Al always likes to compare apples with oranges in order to ferret out the supposed hypocrisies in others.
Almost all of those institutions he cites for instance are private. Most aren’t “museums,” either. They’re cultural centers. Big difference. The ones that are public have a heavy duty historical element … like they’re about MEXICANS maybe.
If people in Glendale want an ethnic-identifying “Armenian Museum” then more power to them. But not at public expense.
Al sounds a lot like our joke of a mayor Mr Rogers.
If the media hates you, then chances are the American People Love You. It looks like this is the truth.
Yes! The GOP had to spend almost $50 million to save a seat in a hard-right district from a tyro Democrat who almost beat them.
Victory! *M*A*G*A !
Not true Semichorus. The Dems in Hollywood spent millions to lose. If they keep trying they will get their wish and go broke. They claim to hate rich white people and most of them are rich and white
Dem-o-rats Underspent in Montana= One Lost Seat
Dem-o-rats Overspent in Georgia_ One More Lost Seat
TWO wins for our Republic.
TWO losses, and millions consumed for them.
M A G A.
Dixie Flyer ….#MAGA
I hope Demo-RATS keep wasting their money. Demo-RATS need to stop ovsteucting and start working with our President to make things better. They seem unable or unwilling to read the writing on the wall. Enough already with the conspiracy theories and Schiff has lost his grip on reality.
You guys are gonna go down hard when the truth comes in.
What are you gonna do then? Shoot everyone up?
Problem is these Demoratz like Schiff knew all the time that Comey said Trump was never under investigation. Maybe we put him on trial for lies ?
Trump himself, under DIRECT investigation. They knew that and said that.
But he is now.
We all know now that all this desperation for impeachment was nothing but a house of lies.
We all know now that all this desperation for impeachment was nothing but a house of lies.
Something tells me Al of So Cal pulls cut and paste good enough to get a Demorat award.
“Ossoff’s loss is made worse by the money involved — $24 million from the party and another $8 million from outside groups.”
The Democrats really make bad investments no wonder the nation is trillions in debt with them running things
