The good thing about South Central is that no matter how bad the history of south central we still move on and try to make this a better place.Yes,i like going to school,and living here because all my friends and family is here and i am use to this type of life.South Central is home to me i don’t care about what people say about it the people that live here try to make a difference.I am going to stay here until i die South Central will change cause we want better life’s for our kids.The three most important events that have had the greatest impact on making South Central,LA what it is today are watts riots,gang history,and LA Riots.
The first event that has made South Central what it is today is the watts riots.The reason why i chose this event is because it was the first riot against the government witch chowed that we weren’t going to be pushed around.That was important to me cause blacks were abused when they had freedom already but still pushed around but they stud up for themselves.The cops taught that they had every right to hurt blacks but when they stud up and put their foot to the ground that cop was scared.They didn’t start a riot for no reason they were sending a message to white government.
Gang history was also important cause they wanted a better life for the kids in the community and wanted to protect people from the white gangs like the KKK and spook hunters.I chose this cause after the black panthers and brown berets were destroyed gangs formed to help but now this wanna b gang members don’t know why they doing this or don’t even know the history of this.Now we have young kids being apart of this gangs and they either end up in jail or under the ground when they are just fighting for a street.Back then they fought for respect,freedom,and other things to defend their families.Now nobody really knows why the commit this stupid things.Gang history made a big change in LA.
LA riots was important to cause all gangs came together to fight for one thing their city of LA south central.I chose this cause the LA riots started cause of racism one was the jury saying that the cops that beat rodney king in front of a camera were not guilty.Latasha Harlin who was killed by a stupid asian lady was given probation and a $500 dollar fine.I chose this because it shows how racist this people are against black people even doe black people haven’t done anything to them.Cops think they are but they are just stupid cause it doesn’t stop us from beating their a** but we don’t do anything to show respect.
South Central will change cause once everyone looks at reality they will want a better life for their kids witch means they will change.Gangs will get tired of killing themselves for no reason and they will leave with their family to a better place.The watts riots history will change the mind of the young kids witch is good for the community.South Central might change but not that much and that is for sure.It takes time for things to change around here.
