RecreationandParkCommission | 2022-03-10 | 10 | EXHIBIT 2 From: Brian Lin [mailto:brianlin160@gmail.com) Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2022 6:06 PM To: Amy Wooldridge <AWooldridge@alamedaca.gov> Cc: CYNTHIA BONTA <cynthiabonta@comcast.net> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Agenda Item6-D; March 10, 2022; Recreation and Park Commission Madame Chair, My name is Brian Lin. I am a student at Encinal High School. I live in Alameda and I visit and enjoy the parks that we have. I learned about the new parks that are waiting to be named in particular about the Alameda Landing Waterfront Park that the Bohol Circle, Inc. is proposing to be named Bohol Circle Immigrant Landing or Bohol Circle Crossing of Hope. I am happy to hear that the City is finally wanting to name a park that will reflect its diversity and inclusiveness. As an immigrant youth I envision a city that values the history and contributions of people from another country who has made Alameda home and actively makes it a city to be proud of because the people see the richness in diversity and acceptance of differences. I am not Filipino, but I know that the immigrant experience is shared by my ancestors who immigrated to the US and all other ethnicities. To include a specific Ethnic name, in this case Filipino in the name we give one of our parks certainly demonstrates that we truly welcome everyone to our city. I see that to bring out our humanity is the way to live a life where we all can pursue happiness and prosperity. Please include the name, Bohol Circle Immigrant Landing and Bohol Circle Crossing of Hope in the short list.
