Description
Photograph of a drawing depicting Calle de Los Negros (Negro Alley, colloquially referred to as "Nigger Alley" at the time) in Chinatown in Los Angeles, later Chinatown, ca.1876. A set of streetcar rails runs across the fame while a long shop front in the background shows a curved and buckling thatched roof. People stand on the porch, horse-drawn carriages in front of them. A man stands in front of a small shack to the left, which dons an illegible sign above its door.
