The riots gained notoriety across America, and is considered one of the key events of the Civil Rights Movement in the USA. Supporters of Martin Luther King protesting racial segregation were attacked by the police. King himself was arrested. Americans were shocked by images of protesters being attacked by police dogs and water hoses. President John F. Kennedy even said the events they depicted were \u0026quot;so much more eloquently reported by the news camera than by any number of explanatory words\u0026quot;. Warhol contributed this print to a portfolio of work by ten artists, published by the Wadsworth Athenaeum, Hartford, Connecticut, the year after the riot.

De rellen kregen bekendheid in heel Amerika en worden beschouwd als een van de belangrijkste gebeurtenissen van de Amerikaanse Civil Rights Movement. Aanhangers van Martin Luther King die protesteerden tegen rassenscheiding werden aangevallen door de politie. King zelf werd gearresteerd. Veel Amerikanen waren geschokt door de mediabeelden van demonstranten tegen wie politiehonden en waterkanonnen werden ingezet. President John F. Kennedy zei zelfs dat de gebeurtenissen \u0026ldquo;zoveel welsprekender werden gerapporteerd door de nieuwscamera dan door eender welke verhelderende woorden.\u0026rdquo; Warhol droeg met dit werk bij aan een portfolio met werk van tien kunstenaars, dat een jaar na de rellen werd gepubliceerd door het Wadsworth Athenaeum in Hartford (Connecticut), Warhol zag \u003cem\u003eBirmingham Race Riot\u003c/em\u003e als deel van de omvangrijkere \u003cem\u003eDeath and Disaster\u003c/em\u003e-reeks, waartoe ook \u003cem\u003eCar Crash\u003c/em\u003e- en \u003cem\u003eElectric Chair\u003c/em\u003e-subreeksen horen.
