Five Years After Charlottesville

Five years ago, a white nationalist rally known as the Unite the Right rally was held in Charlottesville, Virginia. Video from the event shows Neo-Nazis and other white supremacists marching through the streets chanting "Jews will not replace us." Demonstrators later clashed with counter-protestors – and the event turned deadly. 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
