ER & Blaster:....After the Sleepy Lagoon episode of 1943 with Latinos vs Sailors and Marines, I'm sure that zoot suiter sign man had to come down. I recall my step dad talking about it.
York Blvd. was I believe a Latin district in the 1940s and still is. I tried to rent an apartment there in 1972 and no one would rent to a white boy like myself.
Burton's looks a bit, can I say ethnic , as compared to maybe Desmonds.
