"It would seem that even the "rhetoric of the riot," mindless and indiscriminate as it may be, has its positive function in contemporary America." (Haiman page18) Haiman is saying although riots can be destructive and violent they serve an important purpose of voicing an opinion. Especially when it may otherwise not be heard.
