James Posey III, 14, tosses a neighbor’s kid in the air while playing with her in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, Monday, June 15, 2020. Watts has long been associated with deadly and destructive rioting in 1965. This summer when widespread mostly peaceful protests for racial justice across the U.S. have been accompanied at times by vandalism and other crimes, Watts has been peaceful. One lawmaker says the residents learned long ago that it didn’t pay to burn their own neighborhood. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong)

Benjamin Jackson III, 10, walks past a mural depicting George Floyd in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, Tuesday, June 9, 2020. There were no fires this time in Watts. There was no looting, no shooting and no National Guard troops patrolling the streets. When protesters around the country began demanding racial justice over the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd, there may have been mentions of Watts and faint echoes of the riots that broke out in the Los Angeles neighborhood 55 years ago. But they didn’t happen there. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong)

Lorinda Lacy, 45, stands outside her party store painted with a mural depicting Martin Luther King Jr. in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, Tuesday, June 30, 2020. Lacy moved out of Watts 20 years ago because she didn’t want her daughters to grow up with the trauma she experienced as a girl. She said she eventually became “immune” to the violence after stepping over bodies on the way to school and finding out who had been killed the night before or who had their house shot up.

Eric Frierson, 37, gets an haircut from Kenneth Cox, 32, outside an apartment building at the Imperial Courts housing project in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, Wednesday, June 17, 2020.

It doesn’t go anywhere. Every time you go by it, you see it.” (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong)
