Lowriders: Sunset Blvd Cruise July 18 2021

Yesterday, the community of Echo Park and surrounding parts of Southern California came together for a Sunday afternoon event. On it's 2nd year the Sunset Cruise was a huge success, with lowriders cruising up and down Sunset Blvd, in Echo Park. The event even had Banda music which kept the experience even more lively. Mix it with street foods, style, family time it was a great time to spend Sunday. 

Interviewed some locals and what their take on the event. One in particular, Anita Herrera who is born and raised in LA goes into talking about the importance of preserving the culture of LA. Problems like gentrification has affected the community drastically. But they hope events like these teach and inspire the new generation to keep the culture alive.

Here is a video captured from the event.
