With Donna Murch
Using Los Angeles as a lens, this talk will explore the state response to the urban rebellions in the late sixties through the declaration of the wars on drugs, gangs, and terror. It will use this history to reflect on the emergence of a new anti-state sanctioned violence movement in side the US over the past year.
