The Herald Palladium ArchivesWhat an astounding report. From the explosive crowd scene in Benton Harbor to its speculation about what is in the hearts of the rioters, it takes us there and uses a point of view that is so like what most of us would have in the same situation. I recently heard Peter Turnley speak about being in Iraq and some close scrapes he had. This scene from what we often consider the gentle heartland makes it clear that injustice breeds violence and further injustice. Good writing, Kim Strode. The Herald-Palladium is a local paper from St. Joseph/Benton Harbor, Michigan.
