Totally Not Racist Ohio Proud Boy Attacks Black Woman While Calling Her Racial Slurs

Andrew Walls left, from Saturday night and right, in his capacity as a Proud Boy.

But the Proud Boys have a Black leader and Black members you say? Well, that just makes them the stupidest of all the Proud Boys!

AKRON, OH โ€“ A Proud Boy was caught on video attacking a Black woman while calling her racial slurs during a fight in the Highland Square neighborhood.

According to a Facebook post, Andrew Walls was fighting with a group of men Saturday evening while shouting the N-word. The video shows him stumbling away but he notices a Black woman shouting at him, responds โ€œN—– bitch, shut your mouth,โ€ before swinging at her. Someone immediately beats him for attacking the woman who suffered a busted lip. It is not immediately clear if there were any arrests made.

Walls was featured in a Record-Courier article from 2019 where he was identified as the Vice-President of the Akron/Canton chapter of the Proud Boys and was pictured talking to students behind a display of firearms during a pro-gun demonstration before an event for then-Presidential Candidate Beto O’Rourke on the campus of Kent State University. โ€œWeโ€™re here to educate and talk,โ€ Walls said in another article. โ€œI think the tragedies weโ€™ve seen from both the right and left totalitarianism shows you might need military grade weapons to keep yourself free.โ€

The chapterโ€™s Telegram channel was started in 2019 and has not had a new post since last April. On it are posts ridiculing the idea that the Proud Boys are White supremacists. The video of Saturday’s altercation was shared by antifascist writer and director Tizzyent on social media.

25 Years of Hate Having Consequences !

2025 is a milestone year and we want to give a huge THANK YOU to all of our supporters who have been in the trenches with us for the past 25 years. A lot of groups and people we have dealt with since we started are long gone: Richard Barrett, Matt Hale, the Minutemen and others! But we are still here fighting the good fight, contending with the new generation's version of hate politics. There are trying times ahead, but we believe our reality would be even worse if we did not come together to do this work. If you value the research and reporting that we have done at One Peopleโ€™s Project and Idavox- and you want to see it continue- we hope you will consider helping to keep our mission fired up.
