Answer: When the riot ended, 34 were dead, almost 4,000 rioters were in jail, and property damage exceeded $35 million.
Explanation:
On August 11, 1965, less than a week after the passage of the Voting Rights Act, Watts, the largest black ghetto in Los Angeles, exploded in a frenzy of rioting and looting. Chicago and Cleveland, along with forty other American cities, experienced similar race riots in the summer of 1966. The following summer, Newark and Detroit burst into flames. Between 1965 and 1968, there were nearly three hundred racial uprisings that shattered the peace of urban America and undermined Johnson's much-vaunted war on poverty.

Over the course of the six-day riot, over 14,000 California National Guard troops were mobilized in the South Los Angeles and a curfew zone encompassing over 45 miles was established in an attempt to restore public order.
