All Involved: Day Five
Description
All Involved can either be read as a full-length eBook or in 6 serialized eBook-only parts.
This is part 5 of 6, or DAY 5 of 6 days.
At 3:15pm on April 29, 1991, a jury acquitted three white Los Angeles Police Department officers charged with using excessive force to subdue a black man named Rodney King, and failed to reach a verdict on the same charges involving a fourth officer. Less than two hours later, the city exploded in violence that lasted six days.
A gritty and cinematic work of fiction, All Involved vividly re-creates this turbulent and terrifying time, through seventeen interconnected first-person narratives set in the wake of one of the most notorious and incendiary trials of the 1990s.
