Getting around L.A. is both the bane of our existence and an ongoing project of discovery and improvement. And the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County’s fourth season of its NHM Online series, “L.A. on Wheels,” celebrates the diversity of Los Angeles through the lens of creative modes of transportation.

As part of the ongoing “Being L.A.” initiative, the video series explores how Angelenos have transformed movement into a celebration of creativity and community, showcasing the city’s innovative spirit and cultural identity. It highlights various forms of transportation, from bicycles and skateboards to lowriders and food trucks, demonstrating how mobility connects people and contributes to the vibrant tapestry of life in Los Angeles.

The first video of the 2025 season, now available on the museum’s website, focuses on “Biking While Black,” an organization founded by Yolanda Davis-Overstreet that advocates for safer streets and promotes justice, equity and joy. Davis-Overstreet’s work includes organizing community bike rides, educating people on mobility justice and collaborating with local agencies to improve cycling infrastructure in Los Angeles.

Throughout 2025, “L.A. on Wheels” will feature stories about various wheelers and rollers, including the Derby Dolls, Velo Pasadena Bikeshop, Kanya Sesser, Hot Wheels, Lady Lowriders and CicLAvia. NHM also plans to host an in-person event later this year to support the initiative, with more details to be announced.
