UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “And Make the San Fernando Valley My Home:” Contested Spaces, Identities, and Activism on the Edge of Los Angeles A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Jean-Paul deGuzman 2014 © Copyright by Jean-Paul deGuzman 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “And Make the San Fernando Valley My Home:” Contested Spaces, Identities, and Activism on the Edge of Los Angeles by Jean-Paul deGuzman Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Janice L. Reiff, Chair Southern California’s San Fernando Valley is a huge expanse of land that comprises the northernmost section of the City of Los Angeles. Although it is currently the home to over 1.8 million residents with roots from across the globe and for several decades has been a city within a city, powerful and competing images of “the Valley” continue to shape public consciousness about this well-known American space. For better or worse, the San Fernando Valley has become a metonym for the rise and fall of post-World War II suburbia. This linear narrative – that privileges the transformation of agricultural fields into industrial plants and residential suburbs that later fell victim to urban sprawl – elides the histories of people of color in favor of broad generalizations about segregation or demographic change. This dissertation challenges those assumptions and uses the San Fernando Valley as a site to understand the overlapping relationships between race, space, and activism in the twentieth century. I propose that the San Fernando Valley is an instructive site to examine those ii relationships because of its historically multiethnic neighborhoods that have been shaped by the forces of such as war, metropolitan growth, and economic restructuring. -

SUMMARY Your Public Health, Human Resources and Senior Citizens Committee began a series of hearings on the subject of the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) medical condition pursuant to a Motion (Yaroslavsky-Bernardi-Stevenson) requesting recommendations on ways that the City can involve itself in fighting the epidemic and supporting its citizens who have been touched by the disease. After the first of these hearings, a second Motion (Wachs-Snyder) requesting an ordinance prohibiting discrimination against persons with AIDS was referred to your Committee. At hearings conducted on June 19, July 23, and August 13, 1985, your Committee learned that the first cases involving AIDS were reported in Los Angeles in 1981. Since that time over 900 cases of AIDS have been reported in Los Angeles County. The number of reported cases is growing geometrically, currently doubling every fourteen months. -

DISTINGUISHED RESIDENTS of Hillside Memorial Park 1 D ISTINGUISHE D R ESI D ENTS OF H ILLSI D E M E M O R IAL P A R K 2011 DISTINGUISHED RESIDENTS HILLSIDE MEMORIAL PARK AND MORTUARY DISTINGUISHED RESIDENTS BOOK For over 70 years, Hillside Memorial Park and Mortuary has been dedicated to serving the Southern California Jewish Community and to preserving the memories of those who have been laid to rest within our park. We understand that every person leaves a unique legacy and that the greatest tribute is not grief but gratitude for a life well lived. We are privileged to have been entrusted by so many families over the years. This Distinguished Residents Book features the biographies and photos of some of those individuals whose legacies have impacted our lives 2 and helped to shape our culture and our community. It has been created to honor their memory and to inspire generations by their extraordinary accomplishments, tenacity and philanthropy. There are stars whose brightness is visible on earth although they have long burned out. There are people whose brilliance continues to light the world though they are no longer among the living. These lights are particularly bright when the night is dark. They light the way for us all.
