A screening of the documentary "Tom Bradley's Impossible Dream,"  will take place on Feb. 12 at LA's First AME Church. 

Bradley was mayor of Los Angeles for five terms, starting in 1973. The documentary was funded by Cal Humanities through the California Documentary Project.

"Bradley’s 1973 election made history and was a political first in America—he was the first African-American mayor of a major U.S. city elected without a black majority. 'Tom Bradley’s Impossible Dream' provides historical perspective on many issues and themes that are still critically relevant today—race and politics, police and minority communities, shifting urban demographics." - Cal Humanities
