How the 1967 riots reshaped Detroit, and the rebuilding that still needs to be done

JAMES CRAIG, Chief, Detroit Police Department:

Well, what happened 50 years ago, I can't say would never happen in Detroit, because there's still issues.

We have one of the highest poverty rates, and while we have an above-average relationship with the community, there's the issue of opportunities. And while that's getting better and while the city has made a major turnaround, there's still this belief that, while the turnaround is happening in certain parts of the city, it's not in others.
