Скачать или смотреть LA Uprising 30 years later: what have we learned?

April 29, 1992 marks the start of the Los Angeles Uprising following the beating of Rodney King and the acquittal of the police officers who assaulted him. The wave of violent protest, arson, and looting left the city in chaos. Some of the most severe damages were done in Koreatown, where attacks on Korean-owned stores led to greater tensions between ethnic groups. The event left lasting scars on the African American and Asian American communities. 30 years later, what has changed and what have we learned since then?

Annenberg Media’s Grace Yuan Gao documents the events of 1992, interviewing Emile Mack, Angela E. Oh, Erroll G. Southers, and James An.

Produced, filmed, and edited by Grace Yuan Gao
