Aftermath of riots

This article seems too focused on Gov. Agnew and his response. Going to 1968 to discuss general issues related to what happened after King's assassination does not answer questions about the aftermath in Cambridge of the 1967 riots. Did the city or state try to rebuild Pine Street? Encourage economic development? In other areas, such riots caused damage that lasted for decades, often hollowing out formerly vital areas. What happened in Cambridge? Did the population decline? Similar questions need to be answered here.Parkwells (talk) 18:00, 24 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Cambridge and leaders meeting with RFK

More information needs to be given. Was Kennedy talking about an amendment to the city's charter? What took place after this 1962 meeting?Parkwells (talk) 18:00, 24 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
