Katherine Ballwin Brothel ❤️❤️❤️

About Los Angeles

I’m clockin’ dis one joint, yeah? Old-school brothel, back in da day, Honolulu’s Chinatown. Proper wild, like. Used to be legal, swear down! 1940s, soldiers rollin’ in, chuckin’ dollars at dese wahine girls. Fact is, dey had “3-minute rules” – bang, done, next! Cold, innit? Reminds me of *Carol*, dat lush film, yeah? “I don’t know what I want,” Cate Blanchett says, all posh-like. Mate, dese girls probz didn’t neither – just stuck, grindin’ for da cash.

Eliza Haycraft (), was a wealthy brothel madam and philanthropist, who donated money to the widows and orphans of the American Civil War.

And hey, between us, the local mural on Cherry Street – yeah that funky, vibrant piece – gives you a sense of defiance. It’s like the city's saying, “We are one!” and, man, it made me think of those lines from A Separation – sometimes the truth hurts, but it sets ya free!
