Description

Explore the complex history of racial confrontations in the United States through this academic study by Routledge. While many view the urban violence of the 1960s as a sudden phenomenon, this book provides the necessary historical perspective to show that these events were part of a much longer timeline. This text examines the intense period of the 1960s, a time marked by hundreds of deaths, thousands of injuries and arrests, and significant property damage. It addresses the deep sense of outrage and the collective conscience of the American population during these years. By looking at the various explanations researchers have offered for urban violence, the book helps readers understand the roots of these social disruptions. Ideal for students and researchers in anthropology and sociology, this work moves beyond surface-level reactions to offer a deep dive into the social history of radical violence. It places specific accounts of racial conflict within a broader historical context, making it a valuable resource for anyone studying American social movements and racial history.
