Harlem in Disorder: A Spatial History of How Racial Violence Changed in 1935

Charles Jackson injured

Charles Jackson appears in a list of those injured published by the New York Post. He is one of four individuals who appear just in that list. The only information the newspaper provided on his identity was his home address, 73 West 127th Street, near the southern boundary of the area of black residence in Harlem.

The listing described his injury as a contusion, but provided no information on the part of Jackson’s body that had been wounded. (One of the others identified as injured (2/20), and four of those injured in assaults (4/49) also had unspecified injuries). Jackson appeared in a section of the list headed Harlem Hospital, indicating he had been attended by staff from that hospital, but he does not appear in the hospital records obtained by the MCCH.
