White riots:

The New York city draft riots, the Red Summer, Detroit race riot, Zoot Suit riots

In St. Louis, white adults threw glass bottles at black students and their buses when desegration happened in late 70s/early 80s.

Whites in Granite City, Illinois (historically a sundown town) burned down a school building (in their neighborhood) when a black business owner bought it for his offices.

Whites in East St. Louis frequently burned down their houses, rather than sell them when desegration happened.
