You ain't been nowhere and you ain't seen nothin in the way of hangovers until you consider the after effects of the 1960s riots.
Detroit never recovered.
Parts of my hometown, Cincinnati, took decades to change--there are still places I felt safe in 1965 that I will not walk in today, places I routinely transferred buses when I was a teenager.
Retail used to use the word "riot" in their advertising, but that has not made a comeback in 50 years...
