Seth, thank you for initiating this. An apology is unquestionably necessary here; coupled with the recent property restoration to the Bruce family, these steps are just the beginning of a long journey towards creating racial equality. Suzanne Hadley branded our City with a deep, scarring shame. We must be better, show with actions that we want to progress to being more compassionate humans than those who (temporarily) represent Manhattan Beach.

Please reconsider an apology, it does no harm and allows us to move forward

The least we can do is apologize to the Bruce family for the generations of racism & financial harm the City of Manhattan Beach subjected them to. Be decent human beings and apologize. If the city of MB doesn’t apologize we will forever be known as “the racist beach city.”

The reaction of some in our city to the Bruce apology and plaque language proposal this past spring was an embarrassment that will not soon be righted.

This apology to the ruce family is much overdue. We respectfully ask Mayor Hadley to reintroduce a motion for an apology.

My grandmother's family used to freely come to 24th street in MB when she was just a kid in the 20's and 30's from Glendale, a city who later apologized for its redlining policies. Its so unfortunate that MB could not be that welcoming to all visitors, and that it still is not today. I hope some day some MB City Council can see its way clear to apologize for the racist action its predecessors took against the Bruce Family. 100 years is a long time to go without that. I hope we never reach that century mark. For now, its on us residents to do it. I apologize for MB's racism. May we all rid ourselves of it someday.

The city of Manhattan Beach is responsible for a purely racist act. Admit, accept responsibility, apologize, make amends.
