Agreed with Moses99.
In addition there seems to be a lack of personal stakes, can you add a stakes character perhaps to tie the action of stopping violence to the MC?
I would also change the verb “?tries?” with “?must?”, the action gains a sense of urgency this way.
The structure is fine but everything is disconnected and doesn’t make much sense unfortunately. What does the black rights activist have to do with the ant-violence summit? And by taking him down how will it save a town? Why is he making the town hell if he just wants black rights and in 2016 will an audience accept a protagonist trying to take down someone who JUST wants equal rights — I know I wouldn’t. Hope this helps.
