I think this riot and the subsequent deterioration of Detroit is one of the most interesting chapters in US history. I highly recommend the radio documentary "motor city burning" posted on youtube. It contains a lot of very frank eyewitness testimony, especially from members of the police force.
thanks for posting this!

my parents were kids in detroit at the time. My brother's old boss was a detroit cop at the time, they were deputizing citizens, rolling around on pick up trucks with shotguns shooting looters on sight

There's Something in the Waterby TheDetroitRiver448 views
Well done, but I have to disagree with a key part of the "rebellion" argument. It's absolutely true that police brutality, lack of opportunity and other factors directly created the environment, but most of the looting was opportunistic. There's a great first-person account of this in "Motor City Burning", a radio documentary posted on YT. Once looting started and wasn't being confronted, many more people (including some whites) quickly joined in

@jerryg1964 Thanks for taking the time to watch, Jerry ! And I agree with you, after the first day it basically turned into a free-for-all.
