Protesters picketed outside Fremont Place in Hancock Park in 1964 to protest racial inequality, carrying signs and torches to target Cardinal McIntyre who lived there at the time. The neighborhood has grown from only two houses on Fremont Place in the 1920s to over 70 houses now, and the map documents the changes to landmarks in the area like Larchmont Village, LA Memorial High School, and the demographics which show it as one of the most white and Asian neighborhoods in the city though still moderately diverse compared to other parts of Los Angeles.
Racial Segregation in Urban America, post-WWII AmericaEric Beckman

Hunts Point Slave Burial Ground (HPSBG) Overviewjczarka
It is well known in the historical reference that the New York City area's wealthy landowners had slaves, yes, even here locally in the Bronx. Alongside the well to do landowners that are buried in Hunts Point in the Hunt family cemetery was the family slave burial cemetery. In here lies the mystery: where is that cemetery? Local students saved the Hunt family cemetery (now a city park) from obliteration in the 1960s yet the slave burial grounds were leveled and lost to history much earlier.
The clues leading us back to those hallowed grounds revolve around an 1905 photo from the MCNY collections and a clue that the slave burial grounds was located "across the street" from the family cemetery. The 1905 MCNY photo has documented the slave burial ground's very existence and geographic location. In concert with various other source materials, today, NYC public school students and their teachers located in the Bronx, alongside local historians, are seeking to uncover the mystery and commemorate the forgotten lives and last resting spots of these individuals. They rest here, somewhere nearby, unknown and unrecognized. They now deserve to now be written back into our history.
The African Burial Ground and the History of Slavery in New York CityBob Mayer
At one point, New York City was second only to Charleston in the number of slaves. When Wall Street was actually a defensive wall, half-freed blacks formed a community north of it, outside the wall. They were denied, by law, from burying in the city so had their own burial ground. What happened to it?

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
