Yawn ... the mid-1960s all over again ... the inner cities must need a little unban renewal again ...
That was my other thought: urban renewal. DC really needs it.
“the mid-1960s all over again”
BUT,
The MID 60’s saw race riots (Watts in ‘65, Detroit and Newark in ‘67)..the LATE 60’s saw anti-war and leftist riots such as the ‘68 ‘rat Convention and the Weathermen’s ‘69 “Days of Rage,” both in Chicago. The difference with today is that the industrial union members, aka Hardhats, resisted the punks in the streets. Nowadays, the AFL-CIO could be expected to lead the charge for the left in some cases, especially if commie creep Richard Trumka remains in control.
