While media have long dwelled on examples of interracial and interethnic conflict there, the everyday reality of South L.A.\u2019s ever-changing neighborhoods has revolved around Black-Brown co-existence, cooperation, and innovative multiracial organizing. How have South Central\u2019s diverse residents managed to find solidarity in unsettling and polarizing times? What new and shared place-based identities have emerged from the area\u2019s mix of histories and cultures?
