Oakland Protest Was “Much More Than A Riot”
(News One) — When you watch much of the news coverage on the reaction to the Oscar Grant/Johannes Mehserle verdict, you hear more about the looting, vandalism, and so-called “rioting,” creating this sense of a violent and destructive atmosphere. Even though some of the news coverage has stated as an aside the rally started off peaceful, the focus was still on the negative. The truth is that the criminal mischief that occurred in downtown Oakland after the rally was a very small aspect of what happened yesterday.
