“Riots work. And I’ve never said it in that way before. But I’m an American because of that riot,” Killer Mike says, citing the Boston Tea Party. “So when people say riots don’t work: Ferguson was over 60 percent as a black community. They had less than 60 percent representation in politics, far less. Post-riots, they have two new black city council members, they have actual advocates in the community now, and the police chief retired. So if it was argued that riots worked for Ferguson, absolutely they did.”- Killer Mike, from an interview with Rolling Stone, August 6, 2015 -- source link
