The Marine Park Race Attack was a suspected racially motivated attack that took place in the Brooklyn, New York neighborhood of Marine Park on March 30, 2005. In the attack, about 30 African-American teenagers from Marine Park High School chased five Caucasian girls off of a basketball court and through a park. The African-American girls reportedly physically harassed the girls while screaming such phrases as "honky bitches" and "white crackers".
According to New York's Village Voice newspaper, the attack may have been the fault of the white girls and it is still a question of who attacked who.
