In 1968 the city of Cleveland, like much of the U.S., racial tension was at an all time high. This tension came to a head on July 23rd when members of a militant group called the Black Nationalist of New Libya engaged in a shootout with Cleveland police that left 3 militants, 3 police officers, and 1 civilian dead. This led to a riot in the Glenville neighborhood that lasted until July 27th resulting in 2 more people being killed. After 2,100 National Guardsmen were called in, the violence finally stopped and as usual we got in depth coverage of it all, front to back.
