Generally, the streets of Los Angeles are navigated via car, but if you ever find yourself walking up Highland Avenue toward Los Angeles’ famous Hollywood Boulevard where you’ll find thousands of dirty stars engraved with celebrity names and the icons depicting their craft, you might come across another symbol or two along the way.  Just north of the Highland and Sunset intersection there’s a stretch of sidewalk adjacent to Hollywood High. Here you will not find the names of Hollywood’s past and present, but rather two swastikas carved into the pavement with lesser known symbols and names.

It’s unknown how long these symbols of hate have defaced the public sidewalk, but it’s amazing that they have gone undetected by city officials and have been allowed to permeate a belief that’s been dead for over 60 years.
