Unite the Right

The Unite the Right rally[1] was a white supremacist and neo-Nazi[2][3][4][5] rally that took place in Charlottesville, Virginia, from August 11 to 12, 2017.[6][7] Protesters were members of the far-right and included self-identified members of the alt-right,[8] neo-Confederates,[9] neo-fascists,[10] white nationalists,[11] neo-Nazis,[12] Klansmen,[13] and various right-wing militias.[14] The marchers chanted racist and antisemitic slogans and carried weapons, Nazi and neo-Nazi symbols, the Valknut, Confederate battle flags, Deus Vult crosses, flags, and other symbols of various past and present anti-Muslim and antisemitic groups.[5][6][15][16][17][18][19] The organizers' stated goals included unifying the American white nationalist movement[8] and opposing the proposed removal of the statue of General Robert E. Lee from Charlottesville's former Lee Park.[18][20]
