The definitive account of the buildup, chaos, and aftermath of
one of the worst urban riots in US history: the 1967 Newark riots.
Being re-issued on the fortieth anniversary of the devastating
event, No Cause For Indictment is a must-read to understand issues
still facing urban America: poverty, political corruption, and
racism.
Forty years ago, Newark’s oppressed black majority erupted in
revolt and were ruthlessly put down by the police and National
Guard units. When other reporters were too afraid, Ronald Porambo
walked the streets of Newark and took four years to research and
write the whole story. Its publication resulted in two attempts on
his life.
This edition includes an introduction from the editor of the
original manu* about the tumult surrounding the book’s
publication, and an afterword interviewing the author about the
struggles he faced after publication.
