      That wasn’t the owner of the team, he’s a city counsel man. He literally has nothing to do with the team.
      You see how quickly misinformation can spread. You just assume he’s the owner and even if WAS affiliated with the team the team has had several changes ownership since O’Malley brought the team to LA.

    I was born in L.A. in 1950. I was an impressionable kid when I saw the TV news stories of residents in Chavez Ravine being forcibly evicted from their homes, quickly followed by the bulldozers.

    Excellent analysis except at the end when you incorrectly conclude that "the families were evicted to make way for major league baseball." Especially after you DID correctly walk through the history of it earlier. Sure enough, people only remember the last thing they hear and half the comments talk about the people being kicked out to build a stadium. The true story is much more sinister, as you pointed out earlier. It's a shame you ended it so inaccurately. Yes, point A ended up at point C. But to leave out point B is misleading at best. How many Angelenos believe the Dodgers were the villain and that they were responsible for the destruction of the communities? They had nothing to do with it.

And lost to the reality that it was a lose situation. Now, still complaining on bad decision.

    The Hispanic population in California was only 3% in 1958 (vs 40% now), so I don't know about "mass deportations". Chavez Ravine must have been an uncommon Hispanic enclave at that time. Being paid $7000 for a house back then (eminent domain) would be about only $63,000 today, but taking into account real estate inflation in California, the equivalent buying power would be around maybe a $300,000 home today, which does not buy much until you get out of the metro area. But it was hardly the end of the world financially, even though eminent domain is never a nice thing for those involved, for reasons besides finances.

      Under eminent domain, the houses were assessed and they were paid what was referred to as "fair market value" for the homes ($7000-9000 or so). Literally the same process as when freeways are built. They were then given first crack at the new homes to be built there. But the housing project was never built, and they could only move to homes in other neighborhoods - which ended up costing a lot more. In another doc, a man talked about how his family got $9000 and his dad thought they hit it big - only the house they moved into in Lincoln Heights cost $15,000.

    Feel bad for the residents, but it's called PROGRESS. Eminent Domain was created for situations like this. Every Freeway, Public Bldg, had somebody's property there before. The residents should have been compensated more. Life ain't fair.

  • @rongileck5099
    @rongileck5099 10 месяцев назад

    Oh for shit sake, all this whining about what happened back then. It happened and it wasn't like the families moved out weren't compensated. Plus the Dodgers had nothing to do with it, something I've been told forever. Things change, countries change, governments change.

      It's true that under eminent domain the people received "fair market value" for the homes, same as when a freeway is built. But the housing project was never built so the families had to move elsewhere. For example, a family that received $7000 found the cheapest home in Lincoln Heights for $15,000. That big hunk of change turned into a big hunk of debt. Not to mention the loss of the community after the people had been promised first crack at the new homes that were never built..

    It wasn’t really the Dodgers fault though. That land was being cleared one way or another. It was either going to be turned into public housing or something else. The land was available only because the public housing project didn’t come through. Almost all the residents had been cleared out nefore it even got on O’Malley’s radar. It sucks, but the Dodgers didn’t create the situation of that land being available, that was local government that did that.

    • @papatutti59
      @papatutti59 2 месяца назад

      Actually it is. In other videos about Chavez Ravine, O’Malley is taking a helicopter ride looking at the city and sees Chavez Ravine. He wants that land for the new Dodgers stadium. He fought to get that land.
