But the music and good times would not last due to the strict racial segregation that dominated American life then. Harassment from White neighbors and the Ku Klux Klan tore away at the dreams of owners Charles and Willa Bruce.The final blow came in 1924 when the city took the property through eminent domain and paid the couple a fraction of what they asked for. The city wanted the land for a park. The Bruces left and died just five years later.
As a result, Charles and Willa Bruce moved to South Los Angeles and became laborers, said family spokesperson Duane Shepard.They suffered"physical, mental, social and emotional stress" and died within five years after leaving Manhattan Beach, he said. Some are not happy about the ideaGiving the land back to the Bruce descendants will require state action. A bill will be introduced this week.

The government has done this to tens of thousands of land owners. Hopefully this becomes a rend with unlawful eminent domain seizures.
You love to see economic karma a reality.
