MAPS, along with the Chicano and Latino Studies Department, put on a screening of the award-winning film, East LA Interchange on 10/24. Following the film, attendees engaged the film’s director Betsy Kalin and freeway expert Dr. Gilbert Estrada in a rich discussion on the history of Boyle Heights, activism, filmmaking, environmental justice, urban planning, and gentrification. Thanks everyone for coming out and to CLA Scholarly Intersections for supporting this event!
