Community policing was unsuccessful in ending instances of rioting and members of the National Guard, as well as white Cleveland police officers, were sent in to Glenville to put and end to the riot. Upon their return to Glenville, white policemen became increasingly hostile towards black Glenville residents out of a sense of resentment for the deaths of their fellow officers. Though many black Glenville residents were arrested and prosecuted for their actions during the Glenville shootout, white members of the Cleveland police department and National Guard were never faced any negative repercussions for the racism, violence, and brutality they enacted towards the residents of Glenville before, during, and/or after the shootout. | Creator: Bill Nehez | Date: 1968 | Source: The Cleveland Memory ProjectDownload Original File
