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

In the New York Amsterdam News

Stories from New York Amsterdam News were found by searching the digitized copies in ProQuest Historical Newspapers, accessed through the George Mason University Library. However, several issues are missing from that collection, including May 11 and May 25, 1935 (which would have contained stories about public hearings of the MCCH the previous weeks).
