On the different receptions Americans are given in Washington - depending on race. From January 7, 2021. What was obvious to anyone watching live video of the attack on the U-S Capitol during election certification is that the insurrectionists were mostly white. That's something we'll have to bring back to audio reporting including radio -- describing who's there. Because the story here for today's episode is about the difference in the way authorities prepared and reacted for a recent peaceful gathering by Black people and supporters, compared with the non-preparation for a gathering of mainly white people...whose leaders urged them to be anything but peaceful. For educational purposes. Makes fair dealing use of bits of audio from CNN and Sportsnet TV; all other audio is public domain.
