They were race riots that much is quite obvious. White people were being ripped out of their trucks just for being white.
Both are biased. I'd say there were worse race riots in American History, but MSNBC calling them "deadly protests" is trying to invoke an idea that the thugs that took part in the riots were somehow akin to the Civil Rights marches of the 50s and 60s. All they were was a bunch of low lifes breaking things and causing mayhem.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
