Twenty Five Years Post LA Riots, has the fight against police brutality progressed?

It's been 25 years since the 1992 Los Angeles Riots. This was the first recorded beating of an unarmed civilian by the police. In a moment of time where diversity in race, religion, and sexuality was on the brink, the 1992 LA Riots unveiled the little progress made in exploiting and banning excessive law enforcement among minorities. All the while, occurring in a region that was previously overlooked in the larger civil rights diaspora.
