Requests:  0 Summary:  What began in spring 2020 as local protests in response to the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police quickly exploded into a massive nationwide movement. To many observers, the protests appeared to be without precedent in their scale and persistence. Hinton shows that the events of 2020 had clear precursors-- and any attempt to understand our current crisis requires a reckoning with the recent past. She takes us on a troubling journey from Detroit in 1967 and Miami in 1980 to Los Angeles in 1992, charting the persistence of structural racism and one of its primary consequences, the so-called urban riot. Hinton warns that rebellions will continue until an oppressive system is finally remade on the principles of justice and equality. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hinton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
