THE ZOOT SUIT RIOTS: WHO IS TO BLAME?
Episode description
Who’s to blame for the Zoot Suit Riots?
This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) speaks with return guest Maggie Marion about the 1943 Zoot Suit Riots and the troubling events which preceded them. They’re joined by Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early. Was wartime stress to blame for this powder keg moment in US history? Could rationed wool take the fall? Maybe it was the mob mentality of US Servicemen fueled by a biased Media. Or perhaps this was just another crime of fashion.
