People should watch the National Geographic documentary "LA 92", if given the chance. It's free on comcast right now and I believe it's on netflix. Wall to wall clips of raw coverage, news stories and press conferences before, during and after the riots. No narration or reenactments.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
