Los Angeles Sentinel: Historic South LA Black Cultural District Designation Moving Forward
California has 14 officially designated cultural districts. None of them recognize Black culture.
State Senator Lola Smallwood-Cuevas wants to change that. Her district includes South Los Angeles, commonly known as South Central. On June 19th, in recognition of the Juneteenth national holiday of Black freedom, she will annouce her continuing efforts at establishing the Historic South L.A. Black Cultural District in partnership with LA Commons, a South L.A.-based nonprofit arts and cultural organization.
