Game Pens Op-Ed On Baltimore Protests, 1992 L.A. Riots
The United States has once again risen up in protest in the wake of the death of Freddie Gray a week after being taken into police custody. The official police investigation was just turned into the Maryland state attorney, but the past week has seen tensions escalate to riots, looting and clashes with police in the city, resulting in a mandatory curfew and the military being called in to restore order. Protests have broken out in solidarity all over the country in hotspots like New York City, Ferguson and Los Angeles, as well as other cities like Denver. The incident has restarted the conversation on the marginalization of young African Americans in United States society and police brutality and how to right these wrongs. Many people have an opinion on this, some more educated then others, and one is rapper The Game, who was just an 11-year-old kid at the time of the L.A. riots after Rodney King was brutally killed by Los Angeles police and recalls taking part in the looting and rioting that followed. He penned an op-ed for Billboard with his thoughts on the current situation in Baltimore with the perspective of someone there in Los Angeles during the 1992 riots.
