"The gelatin silver print was issued as a wirephoto by the Associated Press to accompany an August 4th, 1964 about the race riots that summer. The captioned text reads; "Map outlines areas in New York and New Jersey involved in racial violence in the past few weeks. In New York City rioting broke out in Harlem (A) on July 18. One Negro was killed. In Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant section (B), Negroes rioted and looted on July 20-22. From July 24-26, rioting in Rochester (C) brought about four deaths. Rioting in Jersey City (D) the past two nights was the fourth outbreak of violence in the northeast in two weeks." An unfortunately biased assessment of protests that began as a result of an off-duty police officer shooting a Black teenager, James Powell, in Harlem.

Three weeks after Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, a New York City police officer shot and killed a fifteen-year-old black youth, inciting the first of almost a decade of black and Latino riots throughout the United States. The Harlem riot of 1964 occurred between July 16 and 22, 1964. It began after James Powell, a 15-year-old African American, was shot and killed by police Lieutenant Thomas Gilligan in front of Powell's friends and about a dozen other witnesses. Immediately after the shooting, about 300 students from Powell's school who were informed by the principal rallied. The shooting set off six consecutive nights of rioting that affected the New York City neighborhoods of Harlem and Bedford-Stuyvesant. In total, 4,000 New Yorkers participated in the riots which led to attacks on the New York City Police Department (NYPD) , vandalism, and looting in stores. Several protesters were severely beaten by NYPD officers. At the end of the conflict, reports counted one dead rioter, 118 injured, and 465 arrested. EB; 8.4 X 5.5 X 1.2 inches.
