We all change to some degree as we age, as does the world around us. I think it's useful and important to re-examine the big events that happen during our lifetimes, and this documentary provides a good way to do that for this particular event.
I was 16 when the LA Riots happened. I remember it, of course, but I didn't have the life experience to truly understand it or what it meant. I was also in my own personal hell at the time, so the outside world was pretty fuzzy around the edges for me.
