#273 - LA Uprising (1965/1992/2020) - WatchThis W/RickRamos

<p><span style="font-size: 24pt;">This is America - Los Angeles Burns: 1965/1992/2020</span></p> <p>On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Ibrahim & I sit down to discuss the current social and political climate as well as how it's only more of the same. To do this right we take a look at two documentaries <strong><em>L.A. Burning: The Riots 25 Years Later</em></strong> (2017) & <strong><em>LA '92</em></strong> (2013). From a narrative vantage we discuss Ron Shelton's <em><strong>Dark Blue</strong></em> (2002) starring Kurt Russell, Ving Rhames, Scott Speedman, Michael Michelle, and Brendan Gleeson. Each film approaches the material in a different way and gives powerful insight into the drama of the uprising. We look at these films with the hope of understanding the current political and social climate. Take a listen. We hope that you walk away with another perspective, one which helps with your understanding.</p> <p>Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to <a href= "mailto:gondoramos@yahoo.com">gondoramos@yahoo.com</a>.
