LA Times Today: Sole Folks
Watch L.A. Times Today at 7 p.m. on Spectrum News 1 on Channel 1 or live stream on the Spectrum News App. Palos Verdes Peninsula and Orange County viewers can watch on Cox Systems on channel 99.
The original idea for Sole Folks was to open a small sneaker boutique in the heart of Leimert Park. Now, less than a year later, and in a much larger space, it’s evolved into a retail co-op.
The venture is managed by the nonprofit Black Owned and Operated Community Land Trust, which is focused on giving the next generation of Black entrepreneurs a leg up.
