History might repeat itself, but for you…

This riot has meaning for me as Father was almost caught in it. My Father was a Salesman and he traveled to Watts a lot. He had friends and business acquaintances there. He was eating at Local Dinner when the usually Cheerful Owner Started yelling at him...Calling him every racist name in the book. threatening to knock his head off if he did not get out of his dinner. My Father was scarred and confused.. He picked up his bag and went to the bus stop. A couple of minutes later he boarded the bus and headed home. As he was thinking over what had happened he looked back and saw the area he had just left in flames. The Dinner Owner saved my Fathers life. After the Riots my Father returned and tried to find him to thank him. The Dinner was Burned to the ground he never did find him.
