New York City residents protest against war during a parade in Harlem, New York City. Civilians crowd on the streets for anti-war mass demonstration opposing hostilities between Italy and Ethiopia. They hold banners denouncing the war and parade through the streets. Buildings on either side of the streets. (Note for Editors: August 5 was a Monday; two demonstrations that linked up in Harlem were actually scheduled and took place on August 3, a Saturday -- it attracted 20,000 people.
