Where were you during the 1967 Detroit Riot?

What suburbs were part of the looting and firebombing?

I saw that too, it didn't make sense. I guess they were talking about HIghland park and maybe Hamtramck? I know HP had rioting, I can't remember anything about Hamtramck.

I think HP had very minimal rioting in '67. Hamtramck was almost untouched. There may have been some looting in River Rouge, if I remember, but the real riot there didn't happen until a couple of years later.

I ran across this title in the Google Books section. Plenty of familiar names and interesting reasons as to why the riot happened.
