Was born in east L.A but moved when I was 10 and lived in South Central to Palmdale but never forgot how I grew up in east LA. It's about love, respect, and cultura. Man I miss it
Whittier , silverlake and Palmdale for me brotha.
I'm always trying to convey how much of a home east los feels to me. And i always thought it was bias but watching this further emboldens my belief that east los is a one of a kind community that must be protected at all cost.
Imagine the families that lost their home due to the construction of these freeways
@@antoniorafaelroman582 -my ex-husband’s family was one of the families displaced by the freeway construction.
And not only East LA and Boyle Heights, also Lincoln Heights, Pico-Union and Westlake (where MacArthur Park is)
What a beautiful documentary. People look away but when they come and look around they fall in love with Boyle heights. Orale
Great documentary. Boyle Heights forever .
I’m surprised not more comments. Anyways I grew up on 7th and Soto near the interchange. My grand father( Patricio Sanchez) and mother(Margarita Sanchez)created la movimeinto organization in the 90s to fight for tonnage limitations for the residential neighborhood in 7th st. To get rid of semis going through the residential area to change freeways. I myself got signatures from the neighborhood and friends parents and schools to help out. There was at least 1500 semis a day going through 7 th St from one freeway to the next. Grand Pa helped re route the semis through industrial are in Vernon. This wax also in the news about how many semis would go through abs moon and grand Pa were interviewed.
Also for sound barrier walls from semis down breaking and freeway noise pollution. Soto St school is right next to the freeway and I went to that school in the 80s and the pollution was so bad that brake dust and tire dust would layer the lunch tables at school if they were not wiped before. It was not dust from dirt, it was black dust from cars and semis. We could not grow vegetables or herbs and spices due to the dust. The whole neighborhood had respiratory problems as well tumors and cancer issues in families.
Mad respect to your peeps for doing something about that.
I know Will. He lived 1 building next to mine. I understand exactly what he means. I went by there about 4 yrs ago in 2019 after leaving in 1987. Boy it hit me. It was like going back to time travel. I missed my youth there. I grew up in Estrada Courts all my life till my teen years. I had some great memorable moments and had some bad times. I missed my old neighborhood. I always wanted to make a movie about me and the guys including Will who we all grew up with and make it happen telling stories how we used to see LAPD run after the gangs there watching them fight shootings left and right. One gang going after another. It was Hell but at the same time it was beautiful to see my friends grow up together. If I had the ability I would make a movie about us but it takes alot. Hope Will can do it. He's got connections. Just us boys growing up messing around with the girls. Playing football at the park playing soccer to. Playing on the monkey bars just being a kid. Hey Will good to see that you've succeeded. I miss Jim's burgers on Olympic and Grande Vista Street y'all remember that I think it's still there. Can't wait to Go back and eat a huge meal there. I thought of applying for section 8 rental so that I could go back and live in the same Apt I grew up in and live there till I die. That's how I feel inside. I see the tears in your eyes brother I feel you I to cry about it. I miss all my friends I grew up there. All of them. Remember Georgiana? Clifford? Terry? And all them guys? Ya I remember. I remember one night police everywhere going after gangs and fighting hand to hand combat in my own back yard literally and saw a homeboy raise a rifle and shoot at the helicopter flying above us. I was surprised I lived to tell about it. Bullets everywhere. Anyway. Viva la Raza. Hope we meet soon.
I was born in 1949 and lived on Grande Vista st., third house from the frwy. exit. When the #60 frwy came in, it cut direct access to Whittier Blvd. My mother graduated from Roosevelt in 1927, and my brother in 1955.
My mother and I moved out in 1960.
Born and raised in East LA and went to Roosevelt. I have a love hate feeling for East LA
This was an eye opening documentary! I was blown away how deep segregation, discrimination, separatism, and racism cuts into the fabric of Urban life in America. Thank you for making this free to watch on UA-cam!! :-)
It happened to Brooklyn NY....it's all about being close to work now and affordability.
Growing up in Boyle Heights, in the 60s.I grow up in Wyvenwood, and then we move to the other part of East LA. Here I grow up a bulldog. AKA Garfield Bulldog. In the seventies. So I grew up knowing about all the smog. The gas prices for your vehicle was going on even and odd days. The long lines to get gas.The video was very informative because I knew about Manuel's Tepyac. I will always be a person who will always speak positive about E.L.A. It will always be a part of me. I grow in a time that Lowriding, Mini Truck Clubs were a way of life. I even met my high school sweet heart who grew up in Boyle Heights on first and Indiana down the street from LA Gloria and Cinco pointos in the corner of Lorena and Brooklyn now Brooklyn is called Ceasar Chavez so for me I will always have my ties to East Los Angeles.
viva mi raza
Beautiful professor of chicano
Studies 👌🏽
Los Angeles was named after a Mexican queen of the 17th century. Maria de Los Angeles.
That was a really great documentary . Always felt East los Angeles was more authentic Los Angeles. I definitely feel more intrigued being in Boyle Heights than say Hollywood or Beverly Hills
East LA like no other
Cool. Entertaining, Lots of different angles and points of views. I hope to open the discussion towards Alameda corridor and south side and southeast areas as well. Well done.
East LA interchange concentrated air pollution in our communities of Boyle Heights and East LA county. Orale. Yet like dust we rise.
Boooooooorn in East LA
Wack I like the gangster Boyle heights
❤2023 book. Evergreen by Naomi Hirahara. 1947. The Japanese Americans are released from camps and sent to Chicago , they return to Little Tokyo and find Bronzville a black community. The Jewish folk moved out, the mob. The KKK, the 100/442 Japanese American soldiers “Go for Broke”. And. Hammer Japanese American Zoot suites from Chicago.
East la is dangerous
not me it was las lomas that were
Because you only watched the news and u don’t live there.
Diversity = Division
I would have to agree with that statement.
Why won't you talk about the racism from the Chicano community today in East LA/Boyle Heights? Esp. towards Central Americans, Black People, and South-East Asians. You want to romanticize Boyle Heights as if it was a multi-cultural melting pot where everybody got along. When the chicano community over there has been notorious for territorial racial violence for the last 40 years.
I grew in Aliso Village in THE FLATS went to Dolores mission Catholic school and I'm Latino jew1982-1999 Boyle Heights will always be my Heart and Home FORVER
My wife’s family has deep East LA roots. We got married at Dolores Mission.
