Kerner Report: Ep 3: Riot or Rebellion? Uncovering the Root Causes of America's Urban Unrest
Host Connie Morris explores the Kerner Commission's findings on the 1967 uprisings, revealing how systemic racism, redlining, segregation, unemployment, failing schools, and police brutality created modern ghettos and fueled unrest.
This episode connects those conclusions to contemporary events and asks whether America can confront these structural problems to prevent future violence.
