Llana Barber explores a history of uprisings in the US against a backdrop of systemic racism, reminding us as we observe Los Angeles that the weak never suffer in silence
Excellent article! This is pertinent to the times that we are living in right now. The struggles and uprisings described remind us that systemic racism and police violence are not new issues, but part of a long history of resistance by marginalized communities. Although the mainstream media and others may frame these as "riots," this is an uprising (which is a powerful attack against oppression and injustice).
