Artbound: How Sweet the Sound
Adult Program
Adults are invited to view this PBS documentary exploring the intersection of Gospel music and the socio-political environment of 1960’s-70 Los Angeles. James Cleveland and Aretha Franklin captured live recordings of the church experience of South Central and the voices and sentiment of the people coming together to give birth to a new gospel sound and the election of L.A.’ s first black mayor, Tom Bradley. Part of the Artbound series, this screening is presented in partnership with PBS SoCal. For more information, please contact the Southeast Library at (310) 530-5044.
