Since April 29, 1992, the city of Los Angeles has not been the same. As our city continues to navigate modern activism, it is crucial to reflect on the history of political and social organizing that has created the Los Angeles of today.

Uprising and its impact on the racial and economic climate in L.A. and across the United States.
