Five Years After Charlottesville

Five years ago, a white nationalist rally known as the Unite the Right rally was held in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Anti-racist activists say that the far right was emboldened by Charlottesville, and while there was some progress made against white supremacy since then, there is much work still to be done.see more
