The next night it got a little bigger and a little bit more boisterous, the same protesting demonstrations were going on for the most part and there were a few more arrests then the previous night. The National Guard was now there and they even tried using tear gas to clear out the students. The next day was when the government and rest of Kent officials began getting really angry. The governor of Kent called the protests “un-American” and openly expressed his anger with the protesting. They made it clear that night that they were intent on putting an end to the protesting as soon as possible.
With the pent up anger and tension, the result was violence and the beginning of the L.A. Riots. However, the riots began as the African-Americans were protesting against the police in the name of Rodney King and the injustice that was inflicted on him. During the process they began to loot stores and set fires in Koreatown, forcing the involvement of the Korean
After seven days of jury deliberation, on April 29, 1992, all four officers were acquitted of the charges they were facing. The African-American community in Los Angeles had already felt strongly that the police were guilty of racial profiling and abuse. Immediately following news of the trial, thousands of people in the Los Angeles area began rioting, which lasted for six days and ended up being one of the biggest riots in history in the United States, later became known as the “1992 Los Angeles Civil Unrest” and “Rodney King Uprising”. Fifty-three deaths, over two thousand people injured, and property damages of close to one billion dollars were just some of the unfortunate events caused during these six days of rioting. After six days, the U.S. Army, the Marines, and the National Guard were able to restore
This created a riot in the immediate area, ultimately bringing about a more civil demonstration of over 200 attendees several days later protesting the raids. The protest was met by squadrons of armed policemen. It was from this event that the publication The Advocate and organization Metropolitan Community Church led by Pastor Troy Perry was
Then the rioters turned their murderous wrath against the black community (Bernstein 3). By the end of the riots on July 16-17 1863, at least 105 people were killed (Bernstein 259). This is one example of how American citizens acted toward the draft and their retaliation against it. When a national tragedy strikes, the number of citizens volunteering for military service seems to go up. This was the case after both Pearl Harbor and Sept. 11 (Rich and Gerson 1).
Stephanie Rios Instructor: Joey Poole Eng101 15 September 2015 On March 3, 1991, an African-American man was caught by the Los Angeles police after a high-speed chase. The officers pulled him out the car and beat him brutally while a resident caught it all on tape. Four LAPD officers were indicted with charges, however, after a year of trial, a white jury acquitted the officers. That decision sparked violence in all of Los Angles. Chaos surrounded the city, infuriated mobs roamed the streets, and several citizens were injured, dead, and arrested.
I think this might be why some people communicate passively because they have had a negative experience with this, and maybe it made things negative for them or changed things into a horrible situation. This can easily happen. There is no way to be
Both are behaviors that people frequently change based on their current social environment. Let’s explore how social influences affect each of these. Aggression Aggression hostile or destructive behavior or a forceful action or procedure. When thinking of how aggressive behavior changes in a social situation or environment the first image that comes to mind is a sporting event. Pictures on the news of riots at soccer games along with rioting in the streets after a championship game.
In moderate to severe traumatic brain injury there could be permanent memory loss, trouble with speech and loss of coordination among other visible and invisible symptoms. Since the individual did not have these issues prior to the injury they will most likely have a negative effect at first. Due to the loss of abilities, they may experience mood changes, anger, depression or anxiousness. These internal psychological challenges may also be compounded by the social anxiety they may feel. Unfortunately, the general society is unforgiving toward those with special needs or differences.
Prior to 1965, gay and lesbian bars were subject to constant raids in cities across the United States. The raids were often brutal and violent. Police would use any type of justification to arrest people attending the clubs, charging them with indecency for kissing, dancing with one another, holding hands, cross dressing or even just being at the bar. The police felt especially threatened by the lesbian community. During that time
