When Harlem Nearly Killed King (2011)
“Martin Luther King Jr.
TWELVEsaving king WORD OF WHAT happened to King made its way onto the newswires, spreading across the country, and causing Southern racists to laugh out loud with glee that “one of his own people” had apparently done in King. J. B. White, a Bainbridge, Georgia, coal dealer, immediately began taking up a collection among friends to send to Curry as a legal defense fund. After Curry was handed over to police, she was taken to Harlem Hospital, where the prostrate King identi...fied her as his assailant. Upon seeing King, Curry once again spewed epithets against Negro preachers, accusing King of causing her to lapse in her Catholicism. After her identity was confirmed, she was driven to the local 123rd Street Precinct for booking on charges of felonious assault, then temporarily locked up until being transferred to the East 67th Street stationhouse, which had facilities for keeping women.
Meanwhile, as the hunt for Maynard continued, a crowd of thousands gathered in front of the hospital.MoreLess
