The New Los Angeles (Trailer)

www.beyondthedream.org

This engaging documentary explores the complexities of inclusion in Los Angeles -- the nation's largest "majority-minority" city and the city with the nation's largest divide between rich and poor. The film provides a riveting portrait of a city in often turbulent transition, beginning in 1973 with the election of Mayor Tom Bradley -- the first African-American mayor of a major city without a black majority --and concluding with the political empowerment of Latinos and the election of Antonio Villaraigosa, Los Angeles's first Latino mayor in more than 130 years. This is a story about forging coalitions, nurturing inclusion, seeding innovation, salvaging identity, and building community -- a story that resonates to every corner of contemporary America. It was directed by award-winning filmmaker Lyn Goldfarb.
