I remember when Martin Luther King, Jr. was shot my dad walking into the house and telling me that North Omaha was rioting, and that fires were burning.
I was kind of scared, I guess, although I didn’t really need to be, since we lived in the SW part of town. Well, Ralston, actually.
A lot has changed up there since then. They tore out a lot of the worst parts when they put the new freeway through.
But I suppose some things haven’t changed that much.
Reading comments on a Omaha television station’s, (WOWT), website, it appears that some folks say that the police presence in North Omaha is too heavy? The man is oppressing the indigenous tribes !
