my grand parents lived there with there children 5girls one boy one of the girls later in life became my mother, they lived in Palo Verde and yes from what my mother told me the government riped them off ,nobody ever talks about that but it will never go away our grand parents & parents told us about this place before they built Dodger stadium and we will teach our children about this ,so they will teach ,and it will never end...
Its already ended pochos are the stupist people ever they are totally mind fucked and call themselves mexican and are actually ultra american mindles consumers
They we not all living at or even under the poverty line... This was a growing close to middle class neighborhood. They were home owners, business owners, AND US Citizens.
It's a shame what happen there, My Mother grew up In Palo Verde, Her name was Susie Maldonado and she lived at 1811 Paducah St. one of her good friends was Lola Vargas.
Thank you for bringing light to theses almost forgotten chain of events. Our people were deceived and that's the bottom line. These were real communities that looked out for one another. I believe that although they lived below the government poverty level, they were rich simply because of their strong sense of family/community. Thank again for sharing. It's not the dogers fault it's the politicians
You forget Boyle Heights was Jewish, Russian and Japanese way before Mexicans moved in. If there was any "gentrification" it happened way before white people started moving in.
pigjubby1 did Mexican politicians deceive them and force them out of Boyle Heights? Mexicans move in to the neighborhood isn’t gentrification, it’s simply people just moving into the neighborhood.
I’m having visions of this lovely community and what a delightful way to grow up. Very sad what politicians do for money. Never for the benefit of hard working people. ❤
Nobody seems to be bothered when families were displaced and homes demolished to build the 10 freeway, the 5 freeway, the 60 freeway and the 710 freeway. I never hear of any boycotting of those freeways even though they displaced many more people than the people in Chavez Ravine.
why do people like to open publicize their ignorance on the internet, when plenty of tools exist to just research a bit? entire documentaries have been made about how the east la interchange displaced families and fractured communities. there are MANY people who recognize the construction of those freeways as violence against the communities who lived there--this is partly what the fight against the 710 freeway extension has been about.
THESE POOR PEOPLE MY HEART ACHES FOR THEM THANK THE GODS FOR THE PHOTOGRAPHER WHO CAPTURED THESE AMAZING PICS THERE WAS NOTHING SLUM LIKE ABOUT THESE COMMUNITYS, IT LOOKS LIKE A INDIAN REZ, WHICH SAYS ALOT ABOUT ARE GOVERMENT IF THESE IMAGES ARE WHAT GOVERMENT CONSIDER SLUM THEN WHY DO ARE U.S. INDIANS LIVE ON SLUM REZ THAT YOU FORCED ON THEM?ITS THE SAME STORY HISTORY REPEATING TAKING LAND THAT ISNT YOURS
Dvader64909 : Do you have any more info on your family and where they ended up setting roots? I’ve always wanted to know where the Chavez Ravine residents ended up moving. Thx!
Chavez Ravin....,, government should give these people their land back!! Which means they would own Dodgers stadium, plus reparations for what they put these people thru.

@ShortButFreshFilms your definition is superficial and completely neglectful of the ways that racism actually manifests in our society. For example, the dehumanizing practice of classifying human beings as "illegal" is absolutely based on racism. For one second consider who is marked as "illegal" in dominant discourses surrounding immigration today. Despite the fact that people immigrate illegally from all over the world, it is always non-white bodies that become marked as "illegal" or "alien."
Native Americans (Indians) we're here B4 any one.. but as far as Mexico thats a spanish word. and mexicans speak Espanol. que no? where did that language come from? SPAIN correct? so theres Spanish people, Native American people. African slaves who were displaced.. and then immigrants from Europe. all coming here to a new land and Formed America and canada... it's just history... if u look at the history of Europe it's similar. warfare and domination and slavery.
"Mexican" is not a Spanish word. Its Nahuatl, The people Mexica (Meh-Chee-Ka)... When the Spaniards invaded Tenochtitlan they changed the way pronounced the "X" in MEXICA from the Meh-Chee-Ka to what we know now as Meh-Xi-Ko. Mexica means "Near The Water" in Nahuatl language for your information. My reply has nothing to do with your comment. Im just correcting you..
@jimtickler WRONG Jim I grew up in low income in Hollywood and yes there are ... wth do you live LMAO apparently not L.A and I'm Mexican and German for the record born in Hollywood Ca at Cedar Sinai which is now a big ass blue Scientology building woop woop!!

My heart and soul are still in those hills of Chavez Ravine I could still see my grandmother cry and cry. So sad.
They should teach it in History classes
Very sad how people are treated

So the Dodgers wound up breaking hearts on both coasts. Nice work!
Never forget your roots seek the truth even when everyone believes fiction
all this for a stupid baseball stadium smh. -_-

Take me out to the ballgame, baby!
@@TheBatugan77Yeah, at the expense of people robbed of their land.
gentrification has been occurring for decades and if you are looking at it as a historian (which we all are) has been happening for centuries.
You forget Boyle Heights was Jewish, Russian and Japanese way before Mexicans moved in. If there was any "gentrification" it happened way before white people started moving in.
pigjubby1 did Mexican politicians deceive them and force them out of Boyle Heights? Mexicans move in to the neighborhood isn’t gentrification, it’s simply people just moving into the neighborhood.
And this is what happens when politicians spend money that is not theirs.

pigjubby1 Highways suck and it was awful that functional neighborhoods were destroyed to build them.
Those freeways are free of charge to use. You can’t just walk into dodger stadium and play with your friends.
NOW THAT IS SAD,CAUSE THE PEOPLE REALLY COULDNT GO INTO DIFFERENT AREAS DUE TO THE TIMES
LOL. Most of the residents of the Chavez Ravine at this time were US citizens. Do your research before you try trolling on a project made for class.
Neat li history lesson of gentrification

My family lived there and were us citizens as well.
What a shame that this happened....
