“Subway Vigilante” or “Bigot?” Revisiting the 1984 Bernhard Goetz Shooting
3 months ago
PBS
In 1984, five bullets rang out in a New York City subway car, injuring four young Black men who were—depending on who you believe—either panhandling or preparing to rob the shooter. The man who pulled the trigger fled the city before turning himself in a week later, claiming self-defense. The case became a flashpoint in a New York dealing with rising crime and racial tensions, with the shooter, Bernhard Goetz, being alternately hailed as a folk hero or condemned as a violent racist.
