Join the LA Law Library book discussion group via Zoom as we conclude our 2021 exploration of immigration issues with Boyle Heights: How a Los Angeles Neighborhood Became the Future of American Democracy, by George J. Sanchez.  Boyle Heights is an in-depth history of the Los Angeles neighborhood, showcasing the experiences of its residents from early contact between Spanish colonizers and native Californians to the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII, the hunt for hidden Communists among the Jewish population, negotiating citizenship and belonging among Latino migrants and Mexican American residents, and beyond.  Through each period and every struggle, the residents of Boyle Heights have maintained remarkable solidarity across racial and ethnic lines, acting as a unified community.  Boyle Heights shows us a dynamic, multiracial community that has forged solidarity through a history of social and political upheaval and offers a vision for America’s cross-cultural future.

About the author:
