She told me it took a couple of minutes to remember everything that had happened in her dream because her mind was really foggy. She couldn't even lift her head or arms for about 30 seconds. She said everything felt heavy, even her eye lids and it felt like she was hit by a semi. She woke up when the doctor was giving her an injection to help her come out of it, but when she woke up everything was really strange. The doctor told her she was having some kind of absence seizure or something like that.

She told me she could see and hear everything that was going on, but she couldn't talk or move. Suddenly she kind of went limp (she was sitting down), and felt kind of lightheaded but also very tired at the same time. From what she told me, she had a dream she was at the doctor's office and started feeling strange. She called me today and was kind of freaked about about something that happened to her last night/this morning. She has had what she thinks are smaller ones, and then she had two TC due to medication and lack of sleep. In recent years, Black surfers have also spoken out about experiencing racism in the predominantly white city.Hey! So my friend wanted me to post a question here about seizures.

Hahn said returning the property will allow the heirs “the opportunity to start rebuilding the generational wealth that was denied them for decades”.īruce’s Beach in Manhattan Beach, California. “We can’t change the past and we will never be able to make up for the injustice that was done to Willa and Charles Bruce a century ago, but this is a start,” said supervisor Janice Hahn, who led the process. The transfer to the Bruce family required state legislation and was recently completed when the county confirmed that Marcus and Derrick Bruce, great-grandsons of Willa and Charles Bruce, are the legal heirs. The couple was left destitute by the land seizure, forced to move to the east side of LA and spent the rest of their lives working as cooks in other people’s diners. The city claimed it needed the land for a park, but then left it vacant for decades and transferred it to the state of California in 1948. The couple suffered racist harassment from white neighbors and the KKK, and in the 1920s, the Manhattan Beach city council took the land through eminent domain. The land was bought in 1912 by Willa and Charles Bruce, who built the first west coast resort for Black people at a time when many beaches were segregated.
