1919 Race Riots; Summer of Rage
Manage episode 423019596 series 3579298
In this episode Alyssa tells Pat about the 1919 Race Riots which are considered to be, simultaneously, amongst the least known and the bloodiest in US history. I am not going to lie it is unpleasant but important.
Also, expletives employed.
Alyssa is working on something fun for next week.
