The Harlem Uprising: Segregation And Inequality In Postwar New York City

In July 1964, after a white police officer shot and killed a Black teenage boy, unrest broke out in Harlem and then Bedford-Stuyvesant. Christopher Hayes examines the causes and consequences of the uprisings, providing a vivid portrait of postwar New York, a new perspective on the civil rights era, and a timely analysis of racial inequality.
