Item description from seller

Socialist Workers Party pamphlet on the Watts riots, which were caused by the "constant abuse by the police, symbol of white power structure, and the prevailing unemployment that continued generation after generation" (p. 2). The author describes the social and economic conditions of Watts, the systematic disenfranchisement of black Americans, and the positive transformative effects that the rioting had on black passivity. Stapled, illustrated wrappers, 21 p., two photographs. Original price blacked out on cover, new price penciled.
