Long Beach is making progress with social change

This Week on the word on Long Beach we discuss the slow process of social change. :59 - We have talked a lot about social justice and social change since the killing of George Floyd on May 25, 2020. Since then things have been moving at a snails pace. Police reform has not happened in the way that community activist have hoped. The low numbers in the Black and Latino communities indicate there is a lack of government trust. Councilmember/Vice Mayor Rex Richardson discusses who the community is working to rebuild community trust. 26:47 - Through January, The Museum of Latin American Art will feature the work of renowned artist, muralist, international painter and social activist Judy Baca. We go inside the museum and meet with curator Gabriela Urtiaga as she explains how art and push the needle of social change.
