In this July 29, 1967, photo provided by the U.S. Library of Congress, President Lyndon B. Johnson interacts with members of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders (Kerner Commission) in the White House. The commission's report, issued in 1968, detailed the root causes of racial tensions in America and provided guidelines to ease civil unrest in the U.S. The report called out unfair hiring practices across news agencies in America, helping to eliminate discriminatory hiring practices across the U.S. mass media.
