Los Angeles County plans to return a prime beachfront property to descendants of a Black couple who built a seaside resort for African Americans but suffered racist harassment and were stripped of it by local city leaders a century ago. "Our next steps? To get possession of our land and then have a week-long family reunion with 3,000 Black Bruces out here on this beach," Duane Shepard, a spokesman for the Bruce family said on Friday.
