The descendants of a Black family that once owned a thriving oceanfront resort in Manhattan Beach could get the property back under state legislation announced Friday.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Backers of the proposal introduced by state Sen. Steven Bradford (D-Gardena) say it is the first step toward correcting a historic injustice when the city seized the resort of Charles and Willa Bruce and forced Black beachgoers out of town 100 years ago.

latimes.com/california/sto…
The bill, if passed, would allow L.A. County, which currently runs a lifeguard center on the site, to transfer the property to the Bruce family. latimes.com/california/sto…
