No Sanctuary for Hate Rally: Protest of Richard Spencer in Old Town Alexandria, VA @ Market Square Fountain | Alexandria | Virginia | United States

Showing Up For Racial Justice, Northern Virginia (SURJ-NOVA), is planning a rally to protest white supremacist Nazi Richard Spencer, who coined the term “Alt Right” and was most recently famous for a viral video where he was punched in the face.

He’s moving to Alexandria Virginia, setting up a home office to spread his genocidal ideas.  Fascism is on the rise, and good allies throughout the country are working together to defeat it.

Alexandria should be a sanctuary city for immigrants and refugees, not white supremacy!

Join us to demonstrate support for marginalized communities against the white supremacist hate of Richard Spencer and his National Policy Institute.

Please bring signs expressing support for making Alexandria a sanctuary city and liberating Alexandria from white supremacy.

Hashtags for this event include #sanctuaryALX, #sanctuarycities, #AlexandriaVA, #inclusiveALX, and #dismantlewhitesupremacy.
