LA County set the precedent.
The Bruces now have sold this land back to LA Countyβrebuilding generational wealth they were denied for nearly a century. This is what reparations look like.
3 years on, I hope the Bruces are just the first of many to get the justice they deserve.

When I first met with our County lawyers & said I wanted to return this property to the Bruces, they told me nothing like it had ever been done before.

Thinking about John Lewis, who we lost 5 years ago today.
When I served with him in Congress, we got into "good trouble" at a sit-in on the House floor, calling for commonsense gun legislation after the horrific Pulse nightclub shooting.
