White Lives Matter Goes to Howell, Michigan Uninvited

White Lives Matter has been having a bad year of doxing and arrests. Why stop now?

On July 20, 2024, White Lives Matter Pennsylvania (WLM_PA) members traveled to Howell Michigan to rally alongside White Lives Matter Michigan (WLM_MI).

This demonstration appears to have been a typical WLM “Day of Action”. An unannounced location. A small handful turned out on the day. A flash mob style demonstration with the same worn out slogans and banners.

The people of Howell are not amused with the racist demonstration of WLM or the one young man named Eric William Cooper from MI who showed up with the KKK flag. On the ground, they were directly confronted the entire time by multiple residents. From social media to City Council- residents have called out and denounced this demonstration. In the 1970’s and 80’s, KKK Grand Dragon Robert Miles held hate rallies and cross burnings just north of Howell. In 1995 community leaders staged a symbolic scrubbing of the County Courthouse steps following a KKK rally. And now this crap.

Numerous accounts of this WLM demonstration include pictures and descriptions of two vehicles. One a Mercedes Benz with Pennsylvania plates and another, Eric William Cooper’s vehicle with Michigan plates.

One People’s Project Pittsburgh can confirm that the Mercedes pictured above belongs to Brandon Cahall. This car can be found parked on the street in front of his Millvale property. Brandon appears to have organized a group of WLM_PA members to travel to MI and drove the three of them there.

Brandon should probably spend more time cleaning up his vacant and dilapidated rental properties and less time trying to hammer his racist ideology.
