Description 1 online resource (1 video file, 57 min.) : digital, sound, color with black and white sequences Summary "Dai Sil Kim-Gibson's 1993 documentary Sa-i-gu stands as one of the crucial texts to offer a Korean American perspective on the events surrouding the [1992] Los Angeles riots ... With Wet sand, Kim-Gibson revisits Los Angeles to learn what changes have occurred since then, only to discover that living conditions have deteriorated and that few remedies have been administered to the communities most stricken. Through interviews with a multi-ethnic set of first-hand witnesses, this follow-up probes deeper into the racial and economic issues that not only shaped the climate of 1992 Los Angeles, but continue to affect all Americans today"--Container Notes Originally produced as a documentary film in 2004 Credits Director of photography, Charles Burnett ; editors, Charles Burnett, Richard Kim ; music, Stephen James Taylor Notes In English and Korean with English subtitles Description based on DVD version record, title from title screen (viewed September 1, 2015) Subject Korean Americans -- California -- Los Angeles -- Social conditions African Americans -- California -- Los Angeles -- Social conditions Riots -- California -- Los Angeles Social conflict -- California -- Los Angeles African Americans -- Social conditions.
