“As the representative for the Ninth Council District, I am proud that a movie about the history of our community and the people who shaped it was so well received.This film delves deep into our shared history and delivers a thought-provoking look at the events that shape our community and the people who have inspired some amazing national programs. From planting the roots for the U.S. ‘Free Breakfast for Children’ program to promoting Sickle Cell Anemia testing for our community, this film illuminates an important piece of the Los Angeles story.”—Los Angeles Councilwoman Jan Perry, 9th District
