Tomorrow, a myriad of armed groups from various factions are expected to gather in #Louisville amidst the #KentuckyDerby2020.
I am flying there this afternoon and will be live-streaming all day tomorrow, but I want to use this thread to introduce the various groups.

The "Not F***ing Around Coalition" aka "NFAC" was formed a few months ago.
About six weeks ago, they protested in Louisville, demanding Breonna Taylor's killers be arrested.
They were heavily armed, but violence was limited to one accidental discharge.

I most recently filmed the NFAC a week ago in my home area of Washington DC, where they came armed only with knives and swords to the Al Sharpton-led "Get your knee off our necks" march.
They told the crowd they are the "new Black Panthers."
