The Rodney King Incident: Racism and Justice in America



Video Cassette - 56 minutes - Color - 1998



On March 3, 1991, an amateur videographer recorded four white Los Angeles police officers beating a black man, Rodney King, on a city street. The incident touched off a storm of angry protests, inquiries, trials and riots in Los Angeles when the police o fficers were acquitted. This Learning Channel videotape by Michael Pack reviews the charges of police brutality, racism, the public outcry - and an unedited version of the original tape. Narrated by Robert Prosky.
