The stories told here spotlight communities little featured in traditional narratives of the city and county history. They include activism by the Chumash people, who predate California as a state, seeking to ensure the continuity and visibility of their history in Malibu. It also includes stories of African-American communities, Japanese-American communities, and activists defending the rights of day-laborers and street-vendors.structured_gallery2021-10-22T11:12:57-07:00Curtis Fletcher3225f3b99ebb95ebd811595627293f68f680673e
