I know many of us to have similar stories surrounding land because when our families got out of slavery they knew what land was worth, which is why they made a point of purchasing it.
I hope y'all work it like them if not there's no point
I know how he's feeling I was just granted ownership of oil rich land in Arkansas that was seized from my ancestors 100 years ago.
Congratulations Bruce Family!!! They won it back! 🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾
So this is basically Tulsa Oklahoma, Seneca Village, Rosewood. This has happened multiple times in history..
Blacks started the riot in Tulsa, Ok and gave,as good as,they got.
That is not true.
@@Melons-vg8dq do you have proof?
I see tons of photos of blacks from that Era and they almost always looked classy. I always used to wonder what happened to that. And then you study history in it's entirety and you see how systematic and institutional the racism was, and it becomes clearer. As the gentlemen put it we weren't intended to own, we weren't intended to stay here, We weren't intended to live among them. I'm just glad I'm hearing the conversation happening more and more.
I PRAY MY FAMILY GET OUR PROPERTY BACK ILLEGALLY RED LINED AND STOLEN FROM OUR FAMILY... JUSTICE TO OUR PPL FOR ALL THE INJUSTICE THAT HAPPENED TO US MAY WE BE RESTORED. ALL PRAISES TO ABBA YAH THE RESTORER.
Congratulations! Newsom signed the return of Bruce’s Beach today. 🥳🥳
I’m finding out that my county’s lake was actually owned by my great great grandparents. And there is currently an ownership battle going on between my county and the US Forest Bureaucracy. The bureaucracy was supposed to give the lake back to my county but I think they aren’t able to because my county never actually owned it. And today I actually got the deed from when my great great grandparents lost the land with their name on it. My family has a case we just don’t have a lawyer. Since there is a very high chance that my family lost the land based on them being black I’m thinking about reaching out to the naacp
Any update?
Watching this closely. So many opportunities could open up for this family.
You kidding, right? It'll be sold to a corporation. No mortal will be able to afford property tax on it.
It’s time to give land back. No excuses.
Finally wrongs being but right :):)
*Native Americans have entered the chat*
@@FortitudineVincimus That part!
@@FortitudineVincimus it’s a difference between native and indigenous
They never got they 40 acres and a mule.
God is working in his people’s favor!! This is such great news!
I pray they get their land back!
This is wonderful.
This happened all the time to upwardly mobile African Americans. Mostly they built highways after taking the land and properties.
Wonderful!😊👍🏼👍🏼
Isn't that something, that she says IF they get their land back? Is the system just like they say when land is stolen from the most vulnerable sector of society and there's an IF when talking about giving it back? Is their punishment for the thieves? Nope.
Nothing was stolen, it was bought. This is like selling a property in the past then coming back to see it raised in value and demanding to get paid again current value. Ps 26 families properties were bought at the same time as the bruces through eminent domain, only 6 were black.
@@ethancropp600 if you say it was bought it definitely was stolen. It's a reaccuring theme. Even our "history" books tell us of legendary sized treaties being broken and land theft. Especially black American owned land. You know buying other people's land doesn't negate the fact that theirs was stolen.
@@fallenbeforefiona9000 they paid the bruces 14,000$ for it, the bruces paid 12,000$ for it, hardly stolen. There was other properties they could have bought in MB with that 14,000$ but they chose not to. This whole story is being used for the agenda of creating a stronger division between us black and white "common folk", it's working.
@@ethancropp600 I would love to see your source on the payment aspect of this $14,000 you speak of. That is a BIC claim and something many others would benefit from knowing. As it stands, they county and the state is admitting that their was no sell but an eminent domain of the properties for use of a local park. If there were a sell, did the county eminent domain the property from the new owner? Just curious how your bit of information connects to what has been legally/historically established.
@@phanorlasso8225 itslike stealing because the owner doesnt exactly want to sell but the property is bought at current value and the owner is forced to move, this happens whenever stadiums are built or freeways etc. Giving just the bruce family the land back or millions of dollars doesnt make sense, its merely a way to stir up racial tensions because they want us fighting each other instead of together. Imagine selling your house in the 80s and coming back now and demanding to be paid the difference from its value then to now, does that make sense? The bruces werent the only family forced to sell and move at that time, why is there no mention of them? The bruces could have bought different property in Manhattan beach but decided to move elsewhere. Now im all for the government forking out money to people but this is more than that, this is a strategic move to rile people up. Regardless of what happens me, you and everyone commenting are on the same team, "they" just dont want us to know it.
So glad
No don’t lease to the county. Build the resort back and invest the money for the black community
Give all of our land back now
I am thrilled about this!!!!!
Give it Back
California was taken from my family....When is everyone moving out so I can have my land back? Including Bruces Beach
lost the war lose the land
Agreed. The WHOLE state
Go back to Mexico and stop riding coat tails
Be proud of your European heritage.
Go find proof of purchase he say she say doesn’t count
It's been a long time coming but well-deserved🤔
So what about Black Wall Street? Do they intend to give back to those families who owned homes, banks restaurants etc.?
Would be a most appropriate thing to do!
This is incredible and an important step to the a more equitable future. How will we also return land to Native Americans???
They're not thats the point.
Natives are denizens by birth. The Bruce's are American Indians.
I have visited Manhattan Beach many times. Million Dollar homes. Very nice View of the Beach. The Sun Set there is Amazing.
So you think the family will be able to afford a property tax in a multi-million dollar community? Someone really wanted that land and it wasn't Bruce's family. Im afraid you've got played. Don't worry. You are not alone.
George Carlin was right about those blue eyes 😉
@@elcidcampeador497 care to explain
The native Indians must be shaking their heads like land taken, bro how about an entire country!!!!!
Native s are anchor babies.
It’s the right thing to do. That land would have never prospered in the wrong hands. Praise God and I hope the necessary compensation is given back to the family, including restored generational wealth.
I hope someone takes a look at the HUD project that occurred in Cape May, NJ in the 60's.
I hope the family gets the land back, and even more, and provides the same service--maybe tiny houses instead of tents--for anyone desirious of an affordable beach stay. And those good memories can last a lifetime--I recall a family stay in a beach bungalow in San Diego in the Sixties. Nothing fancy but walking distance to the beach.
YaY ! Hello 👋 From San Francisco ! 🌊🔥🔥🌊
Get it back. From the government. God bless.
What a weird world
Where is the reparations? With interest!
I want to see the Native American people get their land back
Get their country back.

ISLAM MOOR....
This! All of this right here!
Amen..
So what do you do with all these people that unlawfully own this property
Right now, LA County has a lifeguard station, offices and parking lot on two adjoining parcels.
The County was the most recent owner. Fortunately, no private homes or businesses are on the property
this family had the land returned and then sold it waaaay below land value not even a year after they got it. not about correcting wronged history but for the financial gain.
The indigenous Indians of America want their land back also.
Umm ok
Chile, you're going to take that up with the right people.
I understand Indigenous Americans have had their own struggle with white people - at least some of you were compensated in some way shape or form. That hasn’t been the case for Black Americans.
The Bruce family are the Indigenous Indians of America.Theres no distinction between Negroes and Indian's. Learn about it 🤩
It's our turn y'all....stay wake
The family resold the property back to LA county for $20 million. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Native Americans
Reservations
Natives are anchor babies.🤭
Public use land is a big middle finger to the rich man's pocket. This land will be sold to a highest private bidder (probably one of the Mrs. P clan). So no more park, no more public use. Sea frond will be only for those who can afford it, which is rich.
Hey, but you go on trusting a nephew of a known wise guy. A guy who in the mist of pandemic dines at the French Laundry.
"I don't lose, I win. That's my job. That's what I do"........
"Vanity, my favorite sin."
None of these tawny and brunette complexted people were decendants of slaves! We, our elders, great & up grandparents also ancestors were/are INDIGENOUS to North America. We are the American Indian tribes and decendants. That is why land was seized.
"Vanity, my favorite sin." Someone just snatched this land from public use into private and it's not Bruce's family. All you'll get is a commemorative plaque.
In few years it'll be sold to some rich guy/corporation.
God, when will people ever learn that divided we fall.
Good! I'd love to re-claim my Norwegian family's homesteaded properties in North Dakota and Black hammer Minnesota. Also, Popular Bluff Missouri, where my Black side of my family were enslaved lived and buried. I read somewhere that the plantation owner gave land to the city. Should have given it to the slaves that worked the land like my Norwegian family who developed their lands and built their own farms and homes with their own hands. Let's do this!
Hey Family I'm a Bruce as well. Most of us are in Texas now. Whatever became of this?
I am so glad they got the land back now we have to give the rest of the property back for African American and Indian people there land also
Victory ✊🏼
In a 100 years it will STILL be seen as an unfair sale. The Bruce family should give the money to the Chilula Indian tribe whole stole it from the Kumeyaay tribe who took it from the Chumash people.
When you hear "Hurr only government personnel should be able to own guns durr".
The county and state owe the family millions in back pay to the family descendants... everybody in that family that’s living is own 10 million or better
It estimated that piece of land is worth over 75 millions dollars today.
That land is worth $100 million!
Smh
It happen to alot of black people who land was taken . My great grand father land was taken cause him to go crazy
And the people they stole it from 🌽? Don't need it.
STOP CALLING US AFRICAN SMFH🙆🏾🤦🏾🤷🏾♂️
Exactly because I was about to say, they do not look black
THEY NEED TO CRAWL ON THEIR HANDS AND KNEES AND BEG THOSE PPL FOR FORGIVENESS, ON TV, OR THERE WILL BE A VERY SERIOUS REPERCUSSION ALL OVER LA
So I guess we need to give back Texas to My ancestors the Mexicans or just give back America to the supresed indians
Instead of making up these comments why can't we be happy for the Bruce family?
We had a war and Mexico lost not the same
The Bruce family are the Indians.🤣
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Or Spain$
I HOPE THE NATIVES GET THEIR'S BACK TOO??WTF!!
They been Genocide it !
@@incoco2 aho
Keep Hope Alive!
This is the problem with POC in America. Black people can’t ever celebrate small victories without someone bringing “bUt wHat AbOuT -“
Like damn. All the minorities were fcked over by whyte people. One small victory for one minority group is a victory for all minority groups. It opens doors for others to be compensated as well.
Native's are anchor babies 🤭
Sorry but don't the native Americans own that land.
We're that too.
GOSIA WILLIAMS search Pequout Indian Massacre aka the pagan holiday yall call THANKSGIVING....those Indians look like ME, Black!
They were killed
Just the part that white people took.
We r older than the natives fool we r aboriginal stupid u r the immigrant not us
Go to south side of Chicago and see how they succeed
Some of the information here is incomplete/inaccurate. It would be disappointing for the emphasis of this piece on racism to be undermined by these inaccuracies. Please make sure that all details are represented.
Don't worry you won't be able to afford the taxes,like most Californians
This is ridiculous, my 85 year old white grandpa has lost 2 homes to eminent domain, when do I get paid for this???? Sounds ridiculous doesn't it, not if my skin color was different?
Did your grandfather get paid for his land? This is different. It was stolen... they didnt get paid for it and the Bruce family was barred from paying land again.... as your post noted... your grandfather was able to buy more land. Very different.
@@MissElizabeth1920 no, the bruces were played 14,000$ for the property they bought for 12,000$
@@ethancropp600 one thing you said that was true the Bruce family weren't payed they were played!!! Facts. Your heart knows the truth... Smh
@@MissElizabeth1920 no it wasnt stolen, do a little more research, it was bought for 2,000$ more than they paid for it which 100 years ago 2000$ was a good amount of money.
@@ethancropp600 your story keeps changing 🤣
Get over it. We're Native Americans and we got over it a long time ago.
It’s a difference between indigenous and native
