Racial violence across Miami over the weekend left multiple dead with grisly injuries. Snipers blocked firefighters and looters roamed riot zones as a dusk-to-dawn curfew was ordered in three districts. Authorities sought federal civil rights indictments while community leaders urged calm amid tensions tied to the McDuffie case and past racial clashes in 1968.

Court backs Carter on Iranian students
The Supreme Court refused to block Carter administration efforts to review the status of Iranian students in the United States, allowing potential deportations to proceed. The ruling upholds a Nov. 10 order requiring Iranian nonimmigrant students to report to the INS, with thousands possibly deportable. The case stems from a suit by individual Iranians and a group calling itself the Confederation of Iranian Students.
