Each picture features a detailed description on the backside. Alfred Charles Sharpton Jr., born 1954, is an African-American civil rights and social justice activist known for making controversial and incendiary comments over his career, including antisemitic and racially insensitive remarks. The Crown Heights riot was a race riot that took place from August 19 to August 21, 1991, in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, New York City. Black residents attacked Orthodox Jewish residents, damaged their homes, and looted businesses. The riots began after two 7 year-old children of Guyanese immigrants were unintentionally struck by a driver running a red light while following the motorcade of Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the leader of Chabad, a Jewish religious movement. One child died and the second was severely injured. Al Sharpton marched through Crown Heights and in front of the headquarters of the Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic movement with about 400 protesters.
