MAPS ARE CONSTANTLY ADAPTING TO THE INFLUENCE OF WEATHER AND OTHER ISSUES
Answer:
place, space, and scale
Explanation:
A geographer investigate issues from the view point of location according to place, space and the scale.
The place is an element of location that describes the position or the domain of occurrence of issue.
Space refers the area occupied by a body or the area where an issue is domiciled.
The scale refers to the magnitude at which an issue is view or observed.
Geographers tends to synthesize and combine these different lenses to observe and investigate an issue. Almost everything on earth can be correlated spatially using these lenses.
Answer:
The Los Angeles riots of 1992 were a series of serious riots, looting, and arson that took place in Los Angeles County, California in 1992. These were the largest riots in the United States since the 1967 Detroit riots, the largest in Los Angeles since the 1965 Watts riots, and the riots with the highest number of deaths since the 1863 riots in New York.
The riots began on April 29, 1992, when a jury acquitted four white policemen accused of beating a black taxi driver Rodney King, who resisted to be arrested. A video showing King being beaten by police officers was released to the media. As a result, thousands of African American citizens in Los Angeles, considering the verdict as unfair, took to the streets. The riots lasted six days. The crowd carried out thefts, assaults and arson, with losses estimated at over 1 billion dollars. Peace on the streets was restored only after members of the National Guard of California, 7th Infantry Division and the 1st Maritime Division were called to prevent further riots when the local police were unable to control the situation. In total, 63 people were killed during the riots, 2,383 people were injured, over 12,000 were arrested and 3,767 buildings were burned.
