1967 Minneapolis Riot

http://dbpedia.org/resource/1967_Minneapolis_Riot

The 1967 Minneapolis riot was one of the 159 riots that swept across cities in the United States during the "long, hot summer of 1967". On July 20, 1967, widespread violence erupted in North Minneapolis, an area known for its Jewish and African American communities. The reported origins vary from the police mishandling a teen dispute over a wig to a pre-meditated plot by Black Panther leader Stokely Carmichael. Widespread violence, including rock and bottle-throwing at law enforcement and fires set to businesses along Plymouth Avenue, quickly engulfed the area and lasted three days. rdf:langString
