They caused more racial tensions and increased concern about further urban violence.
Briefly: the Watts riots (1965) exposed deep urban racial and economic problems, led to a law-and-order backlash and greater public fear of violence, and pushed parts of the movement toward more militant Black Power positions rather than unifying it or producing immediate greater equality or solutions to city problems.
