From the late 1950's through the 1960's, residents of Palm Springs California, playground of the stars and home of the rich, were kicked out of their homes and had their homes bulldozed, burned down or destroyed in other ways. For some people this happened while they were away at work or at school. These residents were left to their own devices when it came to relocation and housing. The reason you never heard of this destruction and dispersal of citizens of Palm Springs is because of the nature of the land (belonging to the Native American Agua Caliente Indians) and the make-up of the citizens who were not stars or the rich, but were those who worked to build and maintain the city and the infrastructure of the rich and famous.
