In 1912, Black entrepreneurs Charles and Willa Bruce purchased a beachfront property in Manhattan Beach, California. \u201cBruce\u2019s Beach,\u201d which included a dance hall and caf\u00e9, was a favorite destination resort for Black families. In 1927, eminent domain was used by the city of Manhattan Beach to seize the property with the plan to create a park. With increased national awareness and the Black Lives Matter movement, a renewed demand for justice propelled the issue into the state and national discussion. On September 30, 2021, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill No. 796, which cleared the path for the Bruce\u2019s heirs to have the property returned to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACTEC Fellow Terrence M. Franklin<\/a> moderates a discussion between George C. Fatheree III, a real estate attorney with Sidley Austin, LLP, and Kavon Ward<\/a>, a land-rights activist and co-founder of \u201cWhere is my Land.\u201d George has a pro bono engagement representing the living descendants of Charles and Willa Bruce and will share details of the legal actions regarding the property. Kavon was instrumental in bringing awareness to Bruce\u2019s Beach injustice and racial discrimination and land rights to the national conversation. They will discuss the details in this video.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
