I was 7 years old and one day she had a Dr appointment in St Louis, which meant a trip through East St Louis. I'll remember it always. It looked like a war zone.

You stated "About 48 blacks were killed in the riot, a total not exceeded in an American racial riot until 55 people were killed during the Rodney King incident." This is inaccurate, as there the worst race riot in American history was the Tulsa Race Riot on May 31/June 1, 1921. This is a well-documented event, with the most in-depth description available online at these websites: http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/T/TU013.html and http://www.okhistory.org/trrc/freport.htm. I would appreciate you making this correction in your online information. Thanks. Carolyn Cuskey Mr. Vieth, I need to correct one statement in your East St. Louis Race Riot story.
