Johnson gave the gist of the situation of what African Americans faced and how they were instigated to rise up by Carmichael to take action. Within Atlanta’s Dixie Hills, some cheap, compacted apartments were built within the last decade. Around six hundred of these apartments sprung upon Dixie Hills, resulting in the tensions and discrimination African Americans experienced. Four nights of unrest ensued, giving influence and power to Stokely Carmichael’s enthusiasm towards riots combating racial discrimination. Because the apartments contained an infestation of rats and roaches, fickle plumbing, and broken environments, the bloodshed that resulted from the riot that week was inevitable. Johnson attempted to alleviate the society’s grievances by talking to the authority to make certain demands, but it seems riots appealed to the people
