Location

South Central, Los Angeles (neighborhood)

Sun-baked blocks and busy arterials converge into a densely knit urban neighborhood where community life and political theater collide. A motorcade slices down Sepulveda toward this neighborhood, turning sidewalks, storefronts, and a church hall into a stage for a 3:00 town hall on school vouchers. The air tastes of car exhaust and street food; voices rise with urgent concern and skepticism. Residents gather under banners and folding chairs, folding local grievances into national policy arguments, giving the setting a charged, civic intimacy that forces political choices to play out in public view.
