America on Fire: The Untold History of Police Violence and Black Rebellion Since the 1960s by Elizabeth Hinton

“[T]his book has striven to show that what were long assumed to be urban, Black “riots” were, in fact, rebellions—political acts carried out in response to an unjust and repressive society.” Fascinating read with several references to Greensboro (including the very first page). I learned a lot. A little dry but packed with info.
