Description

This is actually the Winter 1970, Vol 26:1 of the Journal of Social Sciences, but is shelved like a book

"During the 1960s, riots in black ghettos swept across urban areas of the United States in seemingly epidemic fashion.  These dramatic episodes of collective violence left in their wake enormous human suffering and economic loss, vividly reminding us that the American dilemma - the disparity between democratic ideas of equality and the status of black citizens - still exists, as it has existed for over 200 years." ~excerpt from Ghetto Riots
