In this second chapter of Angel Fire, we take a view from the top, examining the Rodney King case and how it brought to light all of the problems in city government. We walk you through Korean American reactions to the Rodney King case, examining how the minority saw itself in the midst of it all. When the verdict arrives, we'll walk you through the opening of the riots, the first Korean Americans attacked by rioters, and preview the obscene bungling of the situation by city government.
