In #Oakland today there was a "Stand up for a Safe Oakland" rally against gun violence
Several #Antifa, who appear to be all white, showed up to "protest" by drowning out mostly black speakers who were naming and remembering homicide victims
Some were upset as it was pretty clear to them the #Antifa were not from around there
Oakland has seen a massive spike in homicide with 71 so far this year in only July. There were 85 total in 2020 and 68 total in 2018

Some pictures of the event and #Antifa
That's Abner Hauge, he was w/ the Antifa counterprotest at Wi Spa just last week
He pretty clearly identifies himself as Antifa and has been presented in RollingStone puff pieces as an Antifa 'researcher'
These people are not 'White Nationalists'
Abner is claiming 'The “Antifa” side didn’t jeer at anyone and the pro-cop people kept getting in their faces and provoking them'
Here's another angle of them disrupting the event
