It’s Chinatown. Take a non-offensive because they actually had them rickshaw ride through the atrocious history of old Chinatown and the Chinese community of Los Angeles all the way up to the present day new Chinatown or, as you know it, Chinatown.

Listen to the early days of Chinese immigrants to the city (3:27) and the creation of China City and then Chinatown (42:02).
