I found it a little interesting just because it was real life 80s footage of Watts, which does or did have quite a reputation. There are tons of early 90s movies on the subject, and Menace II Society is one of my favorite movies. I have to agree with others though that this video really doesn't show much going on and doesn't look that bad. A lot of the Southeast, especially New Orleans, was way worse in the 1990s and into the 2000s. I can drive less than two miles in my own neighborhood right now and find worse, or drive about 3-5 miles and find almost Detroit level ghetto [censored], though it isn't as expansive or populated as the well known neighborhoods in parts of LA.
'Nawlins, circa 1998...
