The 1967 Central Avenue uprising
June 11, 1967
Tampa, Florida
A white officer shot a fleeing Black teenager in the back and three days of unrest followed. Urban renewal and the interstate had already destroyed Central Avenue, the Black business district. The riot finished it, and almost nothing of it stands.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
