Description

The Ebony Beach Club was supposed to open in the 1950s, but the city used eminent domain to seize the site. Los Angeles artist Autumn Breon chats with Shelterforce's Lara Heard about how the story inspired her multidisciplinary art event and why she's inspired by the history of Black leisure sites.
