Black LA Pilgrimage continues… and this time, we’re moving west.
During the Second Great Migration, Black families came to Los Angeles from places like Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas looking for jobs, opportunity and a better life. But even after making it to California, where they could live was still dictated by prejudice, segregation and restrictive housing covenants.
As those barriers slowly began to break, Black families who had settled on LA’s Eastside began moving west along streets like Adams, Jefferson and Santa Barbara Avenue — now Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. But there were still lines they couldn’t cross. Leimert Park and other neighborhoods farther west remained off limits to Black families.
So for Part Two, we stop in Southwest LA, just three streets from Leimert Park — close enough to walk to in minutes, but for decades, that was as far as Black families were legally allowed to go.
The house? 👀 A renovated 1924 bungalow asking $999K — and for once, Jefferson and I agree... A LOT. 😂
We walk through the house, debate the VERY open floor plan, question a few design choices, discover a surprisingly large primary bedroom and ask whether being this close to Leimert Park makes $999K worth it.
Then we head over to South LA Cafe, a Black-owned, community-centered neighborhood spot that shows how the story of community in South LA continues today.
The history brought us here. Now the question is the same one we always ask:
Would YOU pay $999K for this house? Is It Worth It?
