I examine race relations between African Americans and Latin@s in the context of Southern California. Both groups have been historically discriminated, and are now participating in activities that some may call 0́−racist0́+ towards one another. This thesis departs from the Southern California 0́−race riots0́+ in school settings during the early19900́9s. As a result, the students were punished by the Los Angeles Police Department as an instrument of order. Although 0́−order0́+ was brought back to the local high schools, minimal action was taken about the so-called "race riots" root causes. There was no talk about the circumstances in place where black and brown youth live, make up the high populations of residents, nor the lack of resources that are non-existent in the community. There was a lack of sound initiatives aimed at assisting this crisis in Southern California.
