Did you know

  • Trivia
    For about 15 years before his death, he, his family, and community supporters, continually fought the city of Los Angeles Community Redevelopment Agency to try to save their historic Ebony Showcase Theatre and Cultural Arts Center complex from redevelopment abuse which led to eminent domain, the agency's pre-judgment right to possession, and the subsequent demolition of the theater without a demolition permit. The Ebony Showcase was located on Washington Boulevard, near La Brea Avenue, in Los Angeles.
