I think in that particular case, it's quite fine to pass judgment that this was a very bad thing.

Just like star trek often talks about ww2 and nazis and are rightfully portrayed as the bad guys. Just because the riots were more recent doesn't make them any less relevant.

Trek regularly makes judgment calls on specific topics -- racism is bad, violence is bad when there's an alternative.
