The Newark Riots: A 1967 Uprising That Changed America

In this episode of Unique Coloring, Daniel J. Middleton draws and discusses the Newark uprising of 1967. We look at the history of Newark in brief and follow the course of events that led to the turmoil that began with the racial divide and disenfranchisement of blacks in the city. Unless society ceases to marginalize and alienate blacks and other minorities today, the events of that long hot summer in Newark will stand as a blueprint for what will continue to take place in urban cities of America and around the world.

This Newark Riots biography features me drawing another grayscale coloring page for my black history adult coloring book.
