In the final episode of Ballots and Bullets we examine the political aftermath of the race violence in Cleveland fifty years ago, and how it connects to the horrific shooting of police officers in Dallas in the summer of 2016.
This raises the question we asked at the start of this series: Why are there still such high tensions between African American citizens and police?
We walk through this minefield with you, hopefully to reach some understanding both as to how our damaged past explains where we are today, but more importantly, why some of the thinking fifty years ago about American racism may hold to the key to a brighter future.
