Much of this history is part of my memories. I started high school the year of the Watts Rebellion, and by 1968, although I was too young to vote, I was campaigning for local Peace & Freedom Party candidates. I highly recommend this book. Mike Davis and Jon Wiener's chronicle of Los Angeles in the 1960s, Set the Night on Fire, isn't just a stunning portrait of a city in upheaval half a century ago. It's a history of uprisings for civil rights, against poverty, and for a better world that speaks directly to our current moment of mass protest. https://jacobinmag.com/2020/06/set-night-on-fire-los-angeles-mike-davis-jon-wiener-lapd _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
