Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders by National Advisory Comm...

The National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, known as the Kerner Commission after its chair, Governor Otto Kerner Jr. of Illinois, was an 11-member Presidential Commission established in July 1967 by President Lyndon B. Johnson in Executive Order 11365 to investigate the causes of over 150 race riots throughout the United States in the summer of 1967. The Commission sought to provide recommendations that would prevent the riots from reoccurring. The 426-page Kerner Report concluded show more that the direct cause of the riots was rooted in the social consequences of white racism, such as disparities in housing, employment, education and policing.However, the Johnson administration did not directly address the report's recommendations, as they were perceived to be unpopular with conservatives. show less
