They argue that the Aztec culture should be respected and celebrated, not reduced to a cartoonish representation.

Black Magic Canyon
It’s not easy to get to Black Magic Canyon — in fact, many locals don’t even realize that this geological treasure exists — and it is not for the faint of heart. First, you will need sturdy walking shoes. Visitors should also be prepared to scramble over smooth basalt, which can be slippery.
Second, you will absolutely need to check that the water conditions are safe. Anytime in the summer, it is likely not safe. Wait until later in the fall. If you see water in the canyon, do not explore, only go if it is dry. Water created the canyon, and irrigation water still floods its narrow passage most of the year. Starting in the late summer, however, the canyon begins to dry as the need for irrigation water slows. It becomes accessible in late July and August and remains so through the winter, though test flows may be released as early as February. If you explore Black Magic Canyon without checking ahead you may find yourself trapped in a fatal flash flood.
Third, the canyon is a popular spot for rattlesnakes. You’re most likely to spot them in late summer.
If you’re willing to brave it, Black Magic Canyon offers some of the most interesting and unusual geological specimens.

Reviews for "The Cultural Appropriation Debate: Examining the SDSU Aztec Warrior Mascot"
1. John - 1 out of 5 stars - I was extremely disappointed with the SDSU Aztec Warrior mascot. The portrayal of Native American culture is highly offensive and disrespectful. It perpetuates harmful stereotypes and reduces a rich and diverse culture to a caricature. There are much better ways to represent school pride without resorting to cultural appropriation. I hope SDSU takes this feedback to heart and reconsiders their mascot choice.
2. Sarah - 2 out of 5 stars - As an SDSU alumni, I feel conflicted about the Aztec Warrior mascot. On one hand, it's meant to symbolize school spirit and pride. On the other hand, it's cultural appropriation that disregards the history and traditions of the Aztec civilization. The mascot's appearance is also quite cartoonish and does not reflect the true essence of the Aztec culture. SDSU should engage in a dialogue with students, alumni, and Native American communities to find a more appropriate and inclusive representation of school pride.
3. David - 1 out of 5 stars - I find the SDSU Aztec Warrior mascot to be offensive and disrespectful. It's a clear example of cultural appropriation, as it uses the Aztec culture for entertainment purposes without any regard for the historical significance and the people it represents. SDSU should strive to promote inclusivity and respect for all cultures, rather than perpetuate harmful stereotypes through their mascot. I hope they reconsider their choice and adopt a more sensitive approach in representing their school spirit.
4. Emily - 1 out of 5 stars - The SDSU Aztec Warrior mascot is an outdated and offensive representation of Native American culture. It is disappointing to see a prestigious institution like SDSU still clinging to such insensitive symbols. The portrayal of a warrior with a headdress and face paint feeds into harmful stereotypes and completely disregards the complexities of indigenous cultures. It's time for SDSU to recognize the need for change and adopt a mascot that promotes diversity and inclusivity.
