This summer marks the 50th anniversary of the Rochester Race Riots when, for three long days, city residents along Joseph Avenue clashed with police. We tour the area affected with Verdis Robinson, a professor of history and African-American studies at nearby Monroe Community College. Also, we discuss the latest headlines, including the Moreland matter, at our Reporters Roundtable.
