The race riot in Michigan on August 30, 1966, is often referred to as the Detroit Rebellion or Detroit Riot, which was a significant racial conflict. However, it’s important to note that 1966 had several moments of racial tensions, and the most notable riot occurred in 1967 in Detroit.

In 1966, Michigan, especially Detroit, was already seeing increasing racial tension, mainly due to economic inequality, police discrimination, and the unrest within African American communities. The 1966 unrest set the stage for the more explosive events of 1967, when a violent confrontation between police and Black residents led to widespread looting and destruction.

If you were referring to a specific incident that occurred on August 30, 1966, that isn’t as widely documented as the major Detroit riots of 1967, there may be other sources or local archives that capture smaller but important events in Michigan’s history around that time.
