I'm a historian who just graduated from a prestigious university and I'm studying local graffiti to understand its meaning and symbolism. Can you help me brainstorm the possible meaning behind some of the graffiti I find?

Yes, I can help you. Graffiti is often used to signal political or social messages, express individuality, mark territory, and even document events. Depending on the style and location of the graffiti, some possible meanings include: 
- Expression of frustration 
- Expressing support for certain causes 
- Protests against certain people or systems 
- Symbols of local cultural history
- Art pieces displaying local talent 
- Claiming territory or marking it as “theirs” 
- Documenting events, both historic and modern 
- Artful designs
- Artist names or signature pieces
