Factious and partial

The title is absolutely misleading. It is not a documentary about the racial tensions in LA between the 80s and the 90s. It is built up to justify the looting and the killings during the 92 Riots as a consequence of white men brutality. The racism of part of the black comunity towards the koreans is totally overlooked. The guys attacking and almost killing Reginald Denny appear as victims of social injustuice. The honest people (black, white, asian), who were the real victims of criminals hiding their actions behind the racial excuse, are almost forgotten. Adressed only to the guilt ridden conscience white upper class intellectuals.
