Revolution ’67
“Revolution '67 accurately and effectively captures the mood, the pain, the loss, the ambiguity, the fear and the continuing impact of the violent unrest of the summer of 1967. This film helps us to remember a time that still inspires and haunts America.”
by Marylou Tibaldo-Bongiorno & Jerome Bongiorno

Revolution '67 focuses on the Newark riots; the explosive urban rebellion which erupted in New Jersey, in July 1967 - a tragedy caused by similar problems that sparked “race riots” across America.
“Here in Newark, we partnered with Revolution ’67 to bring this insightful documentary to our community.”
- Cory A. Booker, Mayor of Newark, NJ
