West Adams!
The traditionally Black neighborhood that I love for its Victorian masterpieces, greasy, no-nonsense BBQ joints churning out Memphis' Finest,and jubilant Gospel houses! Man, I swear..this place is a real gem. With its lovely tree-lined streets studded with a bevy of homes of Victorian, Craftsman and Spanish-styles, the place has emerged as a hotspot for both Black gentrification (mainly by Black LGBT), as well community activism and lobbying. Oh, and the people ! So nice ! I mean, they actually say small things like: "Hey baby, how you doin' today?". Might not mean alot to some, but I consider them vestiges of a once dignified, polite and courteous era that once graced Los Angeles.
