The year 1919 saw the "Red Summer" of race riots and massive labor strikes involving 4 million workers, including steelworkers and coal miners. The hosts draw parallels to the modern "anti-work" movement and current labor strife. They note that the general strikes of that era led to the creation of laws specifically banning such coordinated labor actions in the U.S.

Historical parallels are drawn between the 1918-1919 Spanish Flu pandemic and the current COVID-19 era, suggesting a similar timeline for the end of the crisis. The hosts noted that the 1919 pandemic was immediately followed by the violent Chicago race riots in July of that year. This historical pattern is presented as a potential "playbook" for modern social unrest following a global health crisis.

### Speculation on Kamala Harris and Race Riot Preludes

- **Episode:** [1421: Chuckle Tell](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1421-chuckle-tell.md)
- **Published:** 2022-01-30

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1421-chuckle-tell/chapter/speculation-on-kamala-harris-and-race-riot-preludes.md

The hosts discussed a perceived media trend of questioning Joe Biden's delivery on promises to the Black community. They speculated that this narrative could be a prelude to social unrest or a strategy to transition the presidency to Kamala Harris. This "softening of the blow" is framed as a potential move by the Democratic establishment to reset their political standing.

### Historical Context of Slavery, Race Riots, and Bernie Sanders

- **Episode:** [757: Dairy Air](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/757-dairy-air.md)
- **Published:** 2015-09-17
- **Time:** 10:51–16:01
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/757-dairy-air/chapter/historical-context-of-slavery-race-riots-and-bernie-sanders.md

Historical analysis of the U.S. Civil War suggests the conflict was driven by the political power of counting slaves as constituents rather than purely moral grounds. Senator Bernie Sanders addressed a large crowd at Liberty University, claiming the United States was founded on racist principles, a statement that draws criticism regarding the original intent of religious freedom. Records of race riots dating back to the 1860s indicate a long-standing continuum of racial tension in American history.

Bob Avakian and the Revolutionary Communist Party USA are identified as opportunistic groups exploiting the Ferguson unrest. Historical context is provided regarding the 1917 St. Louis race riots, which were among the first major documented riots in the U.S. and resulted in the destruction of East St. Louis. The discussion suggests that current looting and destruction follow a long-standing pattern of civil unrest in the region.

The 20th anniversary of the 1992 Los Angeles riots is marked by media retrospectives, including a real-time Twitter reenactment by NBC Los Angeles. Rodney King appeared on Dr. Drew's program alongside prosecutor Marcia Clark to discuss his new book, *The Riot Within*. The media coverage is analyzed as an attempt to link historical racial tensions to the contemporary Trayvon Martin case for political purposes.

### FEMA Camps, Ron Paul, Race Riots Theory

- **Episode:** [333: Lions Stood Still](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/333-lions-stood-still.md)
- **Published:** 2011-08-25

Ron Paul addressed concerns about HR 645, a bill involving the establishment of emergency centers, which some fear are "FEMA camps" for American citizens. Theories from the "White House Insider" suggest the Obama administration may incite race riots to maintain power in 2012. Similar "orchestrated" riots in the UK are cited as examples of psychological warfare used to scare the elite and the public.
