“Many” of the rioters were white? Uh—show me the video. Whites, even radical white leftists, are likely to get the crap beaten out of them.
I assure you they were white.
Many of the protesters were black. They were not the rioters, however.
The rioters consisted of a bunch of SEIU Union thugs (about 300) and 50 Anarchists, mostly white.
