On Saturday night, a coalition of anti-racist groups marched through Richmond, VA in solidarity with protesters who are clashing with federal forces in Portland.
The group faced tear gas as fires were set throughout the city.
Video in thread by @SCWKorsgaard for @N2Sreports.
Interestingly, some of the group carried firearms, and two of the activists at the front of the march appear to be part of the #Boogaloo movement.
One is Mike Dunn, who led a rally on July 4 in Richmond that drew some Black Lives Matter activists in alliance.
It doesn't sound like the entire group was fine with including Boogaloo activists. Although my contributor didn't capture this moment, @GoadGatsby reports that some chanted "fuck Mike Dunn."
Here's my full summary video, shot by @SCWKorsgaard. As always, all footage available for licensing.
A total of "six individuals were arrested for Unlawful Assembly throughout the course of the night," according to ABC8.
