Is the world ready for my race riot comedy?
This script got a rare double recommend from the Stage 32 coverage service but my rep is pretty hesitant to send it out. She's probably right. While the message is anti-racist, nobody is safe from cutting satire in this one. Inspired in a large way by BEING THERE in its societal critique through the eyes of a bumbling innocent. Without even reading it, does this sound like a bad idea?
KING KNUCKLEHEAD
Log Line: After falling victim to a violent crime that inadvertently ignites a racial firestorm, naive white boomer Ronald King must prevent a violent clash between Neo-Nazis and militant Anti-Fascists to save the city from burning and finally enjoy his retirement.

The off season for race riots?
We got what, about 18 months of relative calm before the race BS starts making its rounds again? Maybe in this off season we can see some sensible riots, like: "they're taking our ammo supply away" or "Pelosi needs to be fired for not wearing a mask again". Any takers on the likelihood of that? Lol

What will be the impact politically Democrats if riots related the Chauvin trial, or anything related to race relations break out again?
There has been a lot of speculation recently with the Derek Chauvin trial coming to a close that a verdict will soon come that will not be favorable to those that want to see Chauvin charged to the highest extent that he reasonably could be, and as a result will be a catalyst to riots much like we saw in 2020.
Will this have any political impacts on Democrats, seeing that they currently control all three branches of government at the moment? The riots seen in 2020 were branded as a result of "Trump's America", and I am curious to see if some form of that messaging will remain, or if answers will be demanded of Democrats as what they can do about situations like these.
What effects did race have on the January 6 Capitol riot, and what implications does this have for race relations in America?
(I already know this is a very sensitive topic, but I would like to see a productive discussion, so please be respectful.)
According to an analysis by the University of Chicago’s Project on Security and Threats, 93% of people arrested for charges related to the Capitol Riot are white. Additionally, a significant portion of defendants are from counties which have seen a decline in the share of non-Hispanic Whites within the population.
What role did race and race relations play in the Capitol riot, and the events leading up to it? What do such dramatic statistics say about race relations in America?
