In this July 6, 2017 photo, Deborah Chenault Green discusses Detroit's 1967 riots from a vacant lot where her cousin's home once stood on the city's west side. Green, 62, was 12 years old and spending the night at the home when the riot started on July 23, 1967. "The national guard was going into people's houses," Green said. "I could remember the first time I heard a tank coming down 12th Street. It scared us to death because it shook everything. I always heard shooting during that time. During the riots was the first time we learned how to hit the floor when we heard gunfire." Green now lives in St. Clair, northeast of Detroit. (AP Photo/Corey Williams)
