      Thankfully!

      A much-needed look at a long neglected part of Black cultural history in Los Angeles, this film is a gem. Heroes both known and not-so-well-known finally get the attention they deserve, along with a once-flourishing mecca for the arts. If you're interested in art, music, and poetry that reflect the truth of inner city life, this is definitely for you. Featuring jazz stars such as Roy Hargrove, Billy Higgins, and Billy Childs, plus writers and masters of the spoken word, this documentary will thrill you. My hat is off to the filmmakers for capturing the men and women who made Leimert Park part of a continuum that started first with Central Avenue, then with the Watts Writers Workshop.
