TODAY June 20th, we need you to speak [2 min. time limit] out at the Stone Mountain City Hall at 6 pm. The Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV) will be there in an attempt to bully the City Council into allowing them to fly Confederate flags in the city cemetery.

[F.L.O.W.E.R. @flowerunited]

SATURDAY: protest against the Sons of Confederate Veterans' racist rally at Stone Mountain!

Local activists & community groups are organizing several events in opposition to the SCV rally.

Georgia SCV's spokesman is a racist leader & its rally attracts other white supremacists.

Good riddance: The "Lion of the Confederacy" has now been removed from Oakland Cemetery in Atlanta.

It seems to have been removed last week, soon after the City Council announcement.

Repeated re-decoration of the monument helped make this small victory possible.

UPDATE: Unstable militia leader Chris Hill of the III% Security Force has popped into the Telegram channel for the 8/29 anti-mask/anti-vax rally & shared his plans for the day.

III%SF will gather at the GA Capitol starting 11:30AM, then convoy to the main rally @ Piedmont Park.

Good article by @jason_a_w (with quotes from @AdamHDomby & I) about the sore losers club that is the Sons of Confederate Veterans. The SCV lost in the Charlottesville city council, at the Virginia General Assembly, and the Virginia state supreme court.

This is Scout Schultz, the intersex & nonbinary president of the campus Pride Alliance, who was shot and killed by Georgia Tech Police in 2017.

Schultz's killer, Tyler Beck, was not even kicked off the force.

Fuck you very much, @GeorgiaTech.

On this day two years ago, Tacoma WA police murdered Willem Van Spronsen.

We remember Willem! 🖤❤️

It's great to see the Charlottsville monuments down! What an amazing day.

Read about Zyahna Bryant! She was 15 years old when she decided to take on Charlottesville and their monuments. Today would not have happened without her.

Film crews can't work while noisy protests are around. If this camp is cleared, the production should be prevented from filming.
