The 1960s report that told the USA it was racist – BBC News

In the summer of 1967 more than 100 cities in America were caught up in riots.

US Senator Fred Harris urged the President, Lyndon B Johnson, to investigate the causes.

He set up the Kerner Commission and appointed Fred Harris as one of 11 members to find out why America was burning.

The final report shocked many Americans when it blamed white racism for creating and sustaining black ghettos.

Fred Harris spoke to Witness History about that summer.

The “disgraceful writing in the image was painted last night in the entrance to the apartment of dedicated young people who have been warning us for months that our indifferent cabinet is crushing Israeli democracy,” the NGO added.
