15. "from the suburbs"
In response to In response to 0


          

I watched the insurrection on every news channel, 7, 11 and 4.

I really didn't understand what it was all about. My 11 year old self had only the newscasters and papers to inform me about why Korean business owners were arming themselves with semi-automatic weapons atop their liquor stores.

Later, I would study the events of April 1992 in a course of Collective Behavior and Social Movements. I wasn't there, but one thing I remember learning was that a large percentage (maybe half) of the arrests were Latinos.

I think I was going somewhere else with all of this, but I lost my train of thought.
