yup, in my roundabout way, that is what I was getting at. And I do find similarities in both of the sub-cultures, in that, major societal changes uprooted them from lifestyles.[/quote]
Arraya: Back in the day, my dad worked as an aeronautical engineer for Jet Propulsion Labs (JPL) in Pasadena. He lived in the Silver Lake district of LA at the time (late 1950s) since he was also still in college finishing his Master’s in engineering. I bring this up because he used to describe Watts and Compton as middle-class black neighborhoods with well-kept lawns and nicely painted homes. I drove through Compton a few weeks back on my way to an appointment in Gardena and it bears ZERO resemblance to the Compton my dad described.
The “Golden Age” of American manufacturing (1945 – 1972) brought untold prosperity to groups that had never before experienced it, including lower-class (not used as a pejorative here) blacks AND whites, and the subsequent loss of that manufacturing has created that societal change/dislocation seen in West Virginia, and Detroit and Compton.
