The Riots of 1965–67

There were major and widespread riots across the US between 1964 and 1968, starting just two weeks after the Civil Rights Act was passed.

The riots

There were 329 major riots in 257 cities between 1964 and 1968, starting just two weeks after the Civil Rights Act was passed.
They resulted in 220 deaths and 52,629 arrests.

Causes of the 65-67 riots

They were partially a reaction to ghetto conditions, and police discrimination against black people in the North.
The first was triggered when a policeman shot a young black man, and led to other cities in the North.
The Watts riots in LA occurred after a black man was wrongfully arrested.

Long term problems

The riots were also a protest against long term problems such as:
- City officials ignoring complaints from black neighbourhoods.
- Unemployment and low wages.
- Poor housing and living conditions.
- Poor education.
- Violence in Mississippi and Selma.

Participants and victims

80% of rioters were young black men, who attacked discriminating white businesses but not white people.
In fact, more black people died during the riots than whites.

The Kerner Report

President Johnson started to put more money into improving the ghettos and set up an enquiry into the riots of 1965–67.

The ghettos

The riots drew attention to the problems in the ghettos.
Martin Luther King visited Watts and started an SCLC campaign in the North.
President Johnson started to put more money into improving the ghettos and set up an enquiry into the riots.

The Kerner Report

The Kerner Report said that:
- The riots were caused by poor ghetto conditions, and that white officials had failed to fix the problems there.
- White officials needed to involve black communities in decisions and listen to their issues.

The Kerner Report contents

Policing should be changed to stop police violence and support the community.
Federal money should be spent on improving conditions not on police training which just gave them more weapons to deal with riots in a violent manner.
The media had over-exaggerated the extent and the violence of the riots, which hadn’t helped.
