City rising
Both Boyle Heights and South Los Angeles have experienced an influx of new businesses and newcomers who are not only changing the urban landscape of these historic areas, but are also displacing culture, immigrants and communities of color. City Rising presents the work of 14 teenage girls documenting changes in their neighborhoods and the complexities of gentrification in Boyle Heights and South Los Angeles.
The images on this exhibit explore the similarities and differences between these two neighborhoods and the effect that these changes are having on the community.
