    Product Description

    This perfect-bound magazine is based on a multimedia project about what it means to make a neighborhood, and was created and produced by Samanta Helou Hernandez and Jimmy Recinos. It included three panels about the past, present, and future of East Hollywood, a public art project on redlining, an education campaign featuring redlining & gentrification 101 pamphlets translated into 5 languages, and a 100-page magazine. The entire project took eight months to complete and was funded by grassroots fundraising. Collaborators include professor (and neighbor) Ali  Rachel Pearl, Caroline Calderon of the Little Tokyo Service Center, the  East Hollywood Neighborhood Council, the Thai Community Development Center, and the Anti-Eviction Mapping project. 

    Originally published in a limited edition of 300 in 2021, the magazine features original reporting including articles on some of the first encounters with gentrification along Virgil avenue, as well as with terms such as “redlining.” It also  features photography from This Side of Hoover and Jimbo Times, and a 4,000 word essay from J.T. the L.A. Storyteller (aka Jimmy Recinos) on future efforts for housing in East Hollywood. This limited reprint was made possible by the Heart Mountain Wyoming Foundation when they had their exhibition  honoring the stories of the Albright-Marshall family and their Japanese  American neighbors in the J-Flats neighborhood adjacent to Virgil  Village. 

    Paper: 100 pp.
