Hate and Incitment

Freddie's Fashion Mart

"We’re going to see that this cracker suffers. Reverend Sharpton is on it."

It was his second anti-Semitic pogrom in four years.

  A quarter-century ago, December 8, 1995, Al Sharpton incited the violent fire-bombing of the Jewish-owned Freddy’s Fashion Mart in Harlem, causing the deaths of Angelina Marrero, Cynthia Martinez, Luz Ramos, Mayra Rentas, Olga Garcia, Garnette Ramautar, and Kareem Brunner – the seven victims of the massacre.

"We are not gonna stand idly by and let a Jewish person come in Black Harlem and methodically drive black people out of business up and down 125th Street. If we stand for that, we'll stand for anything."

-Morris Powell Go To Site

America should never forget their names: Garnette Ramantar, Kareem Brunner, Olga Garcia, Angeline Marrero, Cynthia Martinez, Luz Ramos, and Mayra Rentas.

  These seven innocent people were murdered on Dec. 8, 1995, when a deranged supporter of Al Sharpton burst into Freddie’s Fashion Mart, shot four people and set fire to the Jewish-owned business on Harlem’s 125th Street.

  Everyone who knows the story of how Sharpton’s shakedown protests against “white interlopers” incited the Freddie’s Fashion Mart massacre must consider Sharpton permanently tainted as a murderous hatemonger.

The Rev. Al Sharpton apparently referred to the Jewish owner of Freddy's Fashion Mart as a "white interloper" in a rally three months before the Harlem massacre, newly revealed tapes show. Speaking at a separate rally, Morris Powell, who later led the protest against the W. 125th St. store, specifically mentioned Freddy's, saying he would not let a "Jewish person" drive black businesses out of Harlem and vowed, "We are going to make that white cracker suffer."

Sharpton: "White Interloper"...


  The transcript contains demagogic language: Fred Harari is called a "cracker" by Mr. Powell and a "white interloper" by Rev. Sharpton. It contains threats: Mr. Powell says of Fred Harari, "We gonna see that this cracker suffer."

  Mr. Shange says he "had to tell the lawyer for Freddy, ... Jeff Sutton, that you are tampering with something which you will be so sorry, that you open up a can of worms which you can never close any more."

  "What’s wrong with calling someone a white interloper?"

On Friday, December 8, at 10:12 a.m., Roland James Smith, Jr., 51, a Harlem resident with a criminal record going back 30 years, walked into Freddy's Fashion Mart, a Jewish-owned clothing store at 272 West 125th Street, pulled out a gun, ordered all the black customers to leave, spilled paint thinner on several bins of clothing and set them on fire -- a fire that resulted in killing 8 people including Smith.

  Smith had been part of a group of picketers, led by Al Sharpton , head of the National Action Network and Morris Powell , leader of the 125th Street Vendor's Association...

Al Sharpton has never acknowledged his role in the Freddy’s massacre, nor has he ever apologized (even though his actions/speeches, etc., were caught on tape).
