DC Confronts #UniteTheRight2 18

Washington DC, Sunday August 12, 2018. Over ten thousand folks gathered here today to confront what turned out to be a tiny group of about fifteen cop-coddled white supremacists led by Jason Kessler, the organizer of the infamous and deadly 2017 Unite The Right melee in Charlottesville, Virginia. Kessler planned today's Unite The Right 2 event as a celebration of what he accomplished in Charlottesville last year. The anti-racist activists assembled at various points in downtown DC and marched to confront Kessler's band of masked cowards in Lafayette Square in front of the White House. A huge cohort of DC and other police kept the two groups separated. The massive turnout today was widely seen as yet another rebuke of President Donald J. Trump, especially his engagement with racist far right political extremism.
