Considered collectively, they comprise what Peter Levy terms a 'Great Uprising'. Levy examines these uprisings over the arc of the entire decade, in various cities across America. He challenges both conservative and liberal interpretations, emphasizing that these riots must be placed within historical context to be properly understood. By focusing on three specific cities as case studies - Cambridge and Baltimore, Maryland, and York, Pennsylvania - Levy demonstrates the impact which these uprisings had on millions of ordinary Americans. He shows how conservatives profited politically by constructing a misleading narrative of their causes, and also suggests that the riots did not represent a sharp break or rupture from the civil rights movement. Finally, Levy presents a cautionary tale by challenging us to consider if the conditions that produced this 'Great Uprising' are still predominant in American culture today. 650 0 $a Race riots $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Baltimore (Md.) $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a York (Pa.) $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Cambridge (Md.) $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Baltimore (Md.) $x History $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a York (Pa.) $x History $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Cambridge (Md.) $x History $x History $y 20th century. 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 880 4 $6 264-00 $c �2018 941 $a 2 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20191026010202.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190103014704.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DA0B5EEAE19111E89124B82197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
