Episode description

Allensworth is a tiny town a couple of hours north of Los Angeles in California’s Central Valley. It’s in Tulare County, one of the poorest counties in the state. And it was the very first all-black community in California, founded in the early 1900s. Today, it’s home to about 500 people — but they don’t have water that’s safe to drink.
