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

Salvatore Nicolette injured

Salvatore Nicolette, a thirty-two-year-old white resident of the Bronx, suffered a fractured skull during the disorder. There was no information on how, when or where he was injured. As with a number of those listed only as having been injured, Nicolette had similar head injuries to those who had been assaulted and could himself have been attacked.

Nicolette appeared only in the lists of the injured published by the New York American, New York Herald Tribune and New York Post, and the list of the “Critically Injured” or those “Near Death" published in the Black newspapers the Atlanta World, Afro-American and Norfolk Journal and Guide,. Only the New York Herald Tribune identified Nicolette as white, in a list of “Five Negroes and three white men [who] were still in Harlem Hospital” on March 21. However, he did not appear in records of those admitted to hospital.
