The worst may have passed, but the changed attitudes and the terrible toll on families remain.

Rodney King Riots (1992)

The 1992 Los Angeles Riots, also known as the 1992 Los Angeles Civil Unrest and Rodney King Uprising, were sparked on April 29, 1992, when a jury acquitted four white Los Angeles Police Department officers accused in the videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King following a high-speed pursuit. Thousands of people in the Los Angeles area rioted over the six days following the verdict. At that time, similar, smaller riots and anti-police actions took place in other locations in the United States and Canada. Widespread looting, assault, arson and murder occurred, and property damages topped roughly US$1 billion. In all, 53 people died during the riots and thousands more were injured.

City of Angel

When the air plane landed on the LAX, a flight attendant made an in-flight announcement starting with "Welcome to the City of Angels." However, things that I observed for two years in LA was not necessarily beautiful. It looks like that extravagance in Hollywood, disordered downtown, inharmonic culture and high rate of crime cast this city in the shade.
