"Come Monday evening, Kevin de León will be the lone Los Angeles politician still in his job among the four leaders who discussed local politics in racist terms on a recording that has roiled the nation’s second most populous city since October, when it surfaced online.

If anyone thought a new mayor, a new City Council class and two months of time would defuse tensions, perhaps giving Mr. de León, a veteran Democrat, a path to political redemption, a string of events on Friday signaled otherwise.

When he unexpectedly attempted to return to the council dais after an absence of weeks, demonstrators shouted and screamed, three colleagues walked out in protest, and the council recessed until Mr. de León left the chambers.
