Mainstream media coverage of the Red Apple Boycott criminalized
the conflict, thereby obscuring its political dimensions. While a
few journalists attributed the boycott to such innocuous causes as
cultural differences or the language barrier, the vast majority
depicted it as scapegoatingthe irrational venting of frustrations
upon an innocent group. Portraying Korean-American merchants as a
model minority..

Aftermath: Death 53; Injured 2,400; Arrested 12,00; Loss $1
Billion.According to a Los Angeles Times survey conducted eleven
months after the riots, almost 40% of Korean-Americans said they
were thinking of leaving Los Angeles.[
Anger over Korean American shop-owner Soon Ja Du's weak sentence
for fatally shooting a black teenager Latasha Harlins was pointed
to as a potential reason for the riots, particularly for aggression
toward Korean Americans.
After the riots, between 1992 and 2007, the city's black
population dropped by 123,000, as households left for the Inland
Empire, close-in suburbs and even for family hometowns in the Deep
South. They were running, and being pushed: The city's Latino
population grew by more than 450,000 in those years. In the Los
Angeles area, unemployment for Latinos and blacks is worse than in
1992. In 2010, 13.4 percent of Latinos and 19.5 percent of
African-Americans were without work.It's clear in 2012 that some
communities Soqui photographed in 1992 have turned a corner,
including Korea town, Pico-Union and Hollywood. Meanwhile, South
Los Angeles and others have not. Much as the riots drove out
commerce and jobs, the ongoing recession has shuttered storefronts
in poor and working-class neighborhoods."Not only have these large
structural issues never been fixed in Los Angeles," says Darnell
Hunt, director of the Ralph J. Bunche Center for African-American
Studies at UCLA, but "you could make the case things have gotten
worse." 20 4.29 . 4.29 . . 1 . .
