Rioting erupted in the streets of Harlem after the residents discovered yet another incident of vicious police brutality. Most of those killed, injured and arrested during the riot were black citizens. This riot reflected deeper issues in New York City's black community, such as the high unemployment rate, horrible housing conditions and high rate of mortality and illness. This is not to mention the police's track record of discrimination and brutality towards Harlem's black population. Well there goes the myth of equality in the North.
