It's no wonder there has been so much racial animosity in LA over the past half century. While New York and Chicago went through heavy integration in the early 20th century, LA was lily white until the 1950s. The black migration out west was met with the confluence of the LAPD aggressively recruiting WW2 veterans from the South. Talk about a powder keg. History explains almost everything.
Actually i would disagree on lily white due to Hispanics wasn't a 'Racial' category during the pre-50s/60s in the census. We all know East LA is and seemingly been predominantly Mexican community. Now with additional latino ethnicities.
