The Watts Riots

Please imagine that people were mixed and born in a place where style is not maintained. Please imagine that it is owned by Caucasian and can not enter the shop. If you are a black and live in a city operated by a white government, lack of poverty, unemployment, education is all a problem in everyday life. If everyone is treated equally, there will be no problem. However, this does not apply to African Americans in the city center. As a human being, before we take action we have lots of measures we can take alone.

In the late 1960s American cities hampered tensions between ethnic groups. In 1965, Los Angeles was hit by a riot in Watts. During the "long and hot summer" in 1967 there were 75 riots across the country and 83 people died. At the same time, as the war intensified, the student movement started at the University of California at Berkeley in 1964 became increasingly intense. Columbia University is located at the intersection of these two trends because it is a fast-paced university and a black community in New York. As the student editor wrote immediately after the riot:

A massive riot in the black community caused a series of "long hot summers". They began with a Harlem riot in 1964 and a violent riot in the Los Angeles area in 1965 and continued until 1971. The momentum of the progress of civil rights was suddenly stopped suddenly in the summer of 1965, watts suddenly increased due to the riot. As the people were concerned that 34 people were murdered and the property of 35 million dollars (equivalent to 271.8 million dollars in 2017) was destroyed, the public was worried that the violence would spread to other cities, so the other about the LBJ agenda Interest in the program has been lost.

The 1965 shot of the Watts riots showed the Los Angeles area in a similar turbulent period decades ago. They had a black-and-white archive covering the 1965 waters riot, including photographs of murdered civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King and a person in an important city of that era such as Tom Bradley (Los Angeles) I cut it out. First Africa) the mayor of the United States) and Darryl Gates (police chief of the city). The movie continued on a sudden burning of a small fire around the city, eventually leading to a spark, causing the main fire of the 1992 riot. It covers the entire story and the story after that from the highway on Route 210 brutally beaten by the police to the Compton Court where Rodshire Harings' ruling was issued. Other noteworthy places are Baldwin Plaza, Big AM Church, Korea Town, and various police stations.
