Free Download Fire this time: the Watts Uprising and the 1960s By Gerald Horne
1995 | 443 Pages | ISBN: 0813916267 | PDF | 51 MB
In August 1965 the predominantly black neighborhood of Watts in Los Angeles erupted in flames and violence following an incident of police brutality. This is the first comprehensive treatment of that uprising.Gerald Horne weaves a compelling account which suggests that crucial developments in the 1960s- including the rise of black nationalism and a white backlash- are grounded in the preceding decades' repression of the interracial left.In Fire This Time Horne delineates the central roles played by important political leaders and organizations. He documents the role of the Cold War in the dismantling of legalized segregation, and he looks at the impact of race, religion, class, gender, and age on postwar Los Angeles.
