Newark riots, 1967

The 60s in US brought a bunch of changes, mostly social ones. Also there was a bunch of hippies and experimental substances. One of the main hip and cool things to do back then was to fight for something called "human rights". All you had to do was to go out on the street and stick it to the man, then somehow, magically, tomorrow will be a better day for everybody.

I've stared at this picture for like 10 minutes and couldn't come up with a witty caption. Sorry.

One of these events were the Newark riots in July, 1967. Basically, the police of Newark was closely related to the KKK and would pull over brothers for no reasons at all, disrupting their busy schedule of malt liquor drinking. One day they pulled over the wrong motherfucker and riots broke out. Movie coming soon, starring Samuel L. Jackson and Shia LaBeouf.
