    I was born in 1957, and I was only 10 years old and in the 5th grade. I lived in the Gratiot and 7 Mile Road area. I remember the 1967 race riots on 12th street and Clairmount on Detroit's Westside. Every time a army tank would come down Pfent Street, I would hide underneath my bed. That is how scared I was. I even remember riots in 1984, when the Detroit Tigers won the World Series at Tiger Stadium at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull. The fans got out of hand and here we go with the riots again. I was 28 years old and too old to hide underneath the bed. I lived in the Gratiot and 6 Mile Road at the time of the 1984 riots. Tiger Stadium has been torn down and replaced with a PAL, Stadium and retail stores on the corner of Michigan and Trumbull.

    My mother got me interested in a weird scifi series that began airing in 1967 called The Invaders, a Quinn Martin production starring Roy Thinnes.
    It's basically like The X-Files of the 60s. Thinnes even guest-starred on The X-Files a few times! He played the healing man from "Talitha Cumi", "This Is Not Happening!" and "Deadalive."
    Among The Invaders' most notable guest stars were Suzanne Pleshette, Jack Lord, Roddy McDowell and a young pre-Murder, She Wrote William Windom.
    The show is great :).

    I have some fond memories from 1967 like my dad buying our first color television and taking me to my first baseball game but the riot that summer in my hometown of Detroit makes it a sad year for me. I still remember seeing tanks and troop carriers rolling down Grand River Avenue. My mom was worried sick because my dad worked on the docks not far from the epicenter of the whole mess and there were reports of sniper activity along the freeway he took to work even after order had been restored for the most part. Those riots marked the beginning of the end for my city. Detroit never recovered from them.

      I saw tanks in the streets of Manhattan after 9/11 and a huge tank blocking the doors of Grand Central Terminal with National Guard troops positioned with automatic weapons. Here we are, twenty years later, and it’s as if it was yesterday. I can see it and feel it (and can somewhat smell it although it was weeks later that I was there.) I agree with you. After you see tanks rolling down the streets of America, you will never ever forget it.

    I graduated high school in 1967 and remember well the concerts, the anti-war protests and the promises of a better future, a just world without endless wars and senseless racism. We still have a long way to go but it was a beginning. We could feel electricity in the air.

    I was born on one of the hottest days of the year that year, I was born in July a couple days right before Independence Day. Some amazingly good music came out that year. Aretha Franklin and her hit Respect, I wonder how many people got it. Oh, what little respect others seem to have for people today and the things others go through in life. More than ever with this pandemic, that a lot of people have just been so rude to there fellow man, where it’s changed others attitude, as if it’s humbled them.

      That is my birthday(1950) in HS. I was enjoying HS with good friends that I still have. We were not privy to a lot of headline news because we weren’t watching and get this until I think 64 the news was only on for 15 minutes.Otis Redding was a good guy- Jim Morrison was not he was obscene. He was applauded for doing things his way… not for doing things the right way. The public stills holds these kind up on a pedestal.
