That’s right!!! I lived in Baldwin Hills, my grandma was one of the first black females real Estate brokers of Baldwin Hills/View Park, I. The 1970s, her name was DOROTHY WILLIAMS, she worked with DELOY EDWARDS, my grandma Dorothy is BRICCBABY real fathers Auntie. LENNY KRAVITz lived in Baldwin Hills and grew up with my uncle, who went to DORSEY…. We also have the first black fire chief of LA in our family, and many many other legends of LOS ANGELES
@ childhood was great they moved us out to the suburbs where we didn’t grow up with all our LA family, tight and connected… so now as adults the close connection to cousins isn’t really there
Thank you for putting this together Kev Macc. I was raised partially in Windsor Hills because my grandparents owned a home there until they passed in recent years. My dad still talks about being friends with Ray Charles kids. I could talk all day about the area, but anyone being there can feel the historic flow of black achievement just being in the area. Let's not forget stopping at Simply Wholesome for a bite!
EVERYONE TALK ABOUT TEXAS THESE DAYS... CALIFORNIA RUN CIRCLES AROUND MANY STATES I BELIEVE AROUND ALL STATES BUT THE GOV ON PURPOSE WANT ANYTHING THAT ISNT WYTE TO BE THERE OCCUPYING LIVING SPACES
My old stomping Grounds, My folks used to stay on Fairway. Met a lot of great people in View Park, I had fun hanging out in there. Went to Windsor Hills and bused to Palms and Uni High.
Salute Kev Mac for bringing this type of information to UA-cam and our community. Yes we have done more than drive by shootings and deal drugs in our communities. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥.
What. A.story. teller. Sir. You. Are. A man who knows. History. Its. Golden you. Take us. Back. And Beyond I enjoy listening to you talk brother it is a joy everything comes out of your mouth is golden
Very well done KM!!! This was a true history tour of the area for some and most didn't even know half of these facts!!! Thank you bruh! I am a hugh fan and love your hood story btw!
You know that I have been waiting for this one!!! Thanks, KMV. We have such a rich history in L.A. and I think it is important to highlight history like this to give insight into our current condition.
So the wealthiest black community in the nation also has the highest collective IQs in the nation 🤔 goes to show that it’s poverty that effects productivity not race… imma Windsor hills elem alumnus btw 💪🏾💪🏾.. good shit Kmac.. need that part 2
in the 70s/80s/90s, i had well-off aunts+uncles in baldwin hills and 1st cuzins at dorsey high living in the jungles...and that wasn't unusual back then.
Baldwin hills people are real down to earth and cool but I’ve always noticed a lot from ladera and Windsor think they’re better than us other black folk and kind of have there nose in the air at us
@@KDubb-ws9zc I lived in the Dons. I used to see ppl from Windsor walking all the time and they were as sweet as the day is long. I met some a-holes over there too though. I moved back over the hill a few years ago. There are tons of white ppl moving over there now. They all up in the jungles, Leimert, 60s. Alot of them from the east coast work in Hollywood seasonally and bought condos over there. Have no idea where they live 😂
not gonna be black beverly hills much longer if the families keep selling it for the first piece of change they are offered. People get trusts in order
@@anthonythomas5998 the area is over 90% black, its not mixed. The residents of the area do stick together. A lot have been in the homes 30,40,50 years. My comment is in regard to a designation that cant continue if people are selling. But to answer the question people who live in that area are representative of what hard work and building wealth can accomplish. At the very least, looking at those that live in the area is inspiring and motivates some to seek the same progress and success.
Yep. And some people need that cash now and the way the market has been going for the past 10 odd years, seems like it reached a peak. It would be great if the homeowner could sell that property to a neighbor but that person would have to have enough cash. I grew up in a neighborhood in the South that got gentrified and one of the neighbors who was cash rich tried to buy out anybody who was trying to leave but enough folks left and he didn't have enough money or will to take on that amount of mortgage loans. It sucks but plenty of folks in LA I've seen who are house poor, especially those whose parents or themselves bought homes when they were cheap as hell pre 1990s. Seen a guy with a property that was worth $750k in 2012 and couldn't make the property tax payments and almost lost his house remortgaging.
So don’t wait on a trust to inherit your parents property. Buy your own house in the neighborhood and god forbid your parents pass but then you’ll have another property in the area. That’s how you add to your families wealth in your own section.. just saying because I did!..

Property Taxes only increase 1% a year. Taxes shoot up after a sell. % of Current Purchase Price. So if you never sell, the property tax stays low even if the market Value of the House Shoots Up. You Can have a Million dollar house, but your paying 1% increases from the 1965 Purchase Price....

I’m white. I grew up in Ladera Heights, not way back when it was white. either, my mother grew up there then when the Ladera Heights also had the nickname, pill hill, I was one of the only ones left. It’s also a neighborhood that interracial couples targeted because there was less discrimination against them there. What makes me mad when I’m visiting my mom and Black people looking at me like I’m one of these new white people. I take them to school real quick when that happens. Ha ha

Im going to be honest, the area is mixed.If you don't stick together in general, how is living in these area's going to unite you ??
Reminds me of Collier Heights in Atlanta and Virginia Key Beach in Miami black communities once thriving but only memories
