Good book but authors conclusions are biased

Revisado: 02-15-21

This book is a fascinating story of an event that I had never heard of even though I was in college at the time. What I found interesting was the same grievances being used by todays Antifa/BLM terrorists are just recycled from that era. America bad, racism, socialism/communism will lead to equality and everybody except white people are noble. The murder of innocents and robbing of banks and business' is justified to support the revolution in the warped minds of these people. The narcissisms of the terrorist groups are galling . Instead of moving to Cuba or the Soviet Union to live the ideology they espoused, they instead sought to revolutionize America and reform it in their image, even if it went against the will of the vast majority of Americans.
Did the group(s) have some valid points about the governments actions? Yes, just as there have always been grievances against the government since its inception. Their method of addressing those grievances was madness.
I reject the authors conclusion that Antifa/BLM are not terrorists. Two billion plus in property damage , 75 lives lost and countless injuries disprove that rather easily. Instead the White Power movement is the problem. Where is that? And the white power movement espouse the ideologies of the left ( socialism), not the right. Just ask Richard Spencer, supposed head of the NAZI Party in the U.S.
