Majority-Black Town in Ohio Launches Armed Watch after Neo-#Nazi, #Klan Provocations

from #WorldOutlook
February 28, 2025

"On February 7, about a dozen masked men, some of them carrying AR-15 semi-automatic rifles, drove a U-Haul truck to a freeway overpass at Lincoln Heights’ edge. The men, dressed in black, shouted racist slurs and waived black flags with red swastikas on them. Enraged Lincoln Heights residents soon approached to counter protest. Local police who converged on the scene from the nearby town of #Evandale, across the highway, appeared cordial toward some of the white supremacists. As the crowd of Lincoln Heights residents swelled, the ultra rightists got back on their truck and drove off. Counter protesters burned the Nazi flags left behind."

World-Outlook · Majority-Black Town in Ohio Launches Armed Watch after Neo-Nazi, Klan ProvocationsThis article reports on efforts by residents of Lincoln Heights, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, to defend themselves against provocations by neo-Nazi thugs and Ku Klux Klansmen by organizing counter-mobilizations and an armed watch. Nearly 83% of the town’s approximately 3,000 residents are African American. Lincoln Heights was the first self-governing Black community to be founded north of the Mason-Dixon line, which divided the Union from the Confederate South during the U.S. civil war.

Continued thread

Events and lectures are regularly organised by leading figures from the right-wing scene, including members of the Identitarian movement and the AfD, who openly oppose the fundamental values of our democracy.

Thilo Sarrazin may still be known to some as an SPD politician in Berlin. In 2010, he published the highly controversial racist book ‘Deutschland schafft sich ab’ (Germany is abolishing itself), in which he addressed the consequences of the declining birth rate and the rising immigration rate in Germany, particularly from Islamic countries.

This and the growing underclass are supposedly making Germany ‘poorer and poorer’.

Let's show him next Wednesday at the Library of Conservatism who has really become dumber and dumber here! 🤡

📢 See you at the rally 📢

📢Rally against Thilo Sarrazin on 13.11📢

Next Wednesday, Thilo Sarrazin, who is often quoted by right-wingers, is offering a reading at the Library of Conservatism.

We don't want to put up with that!

Come to our rally and show him and his like-minded people that they have no business here or anywhere else.

The fact that such uninvited guests dare to come to Berlin's city centre is unfortunately no coincidence. The so-called library of conservatism uses the cloak of academia to academically legitimise right-wing extremist and discriminatory positions and make them acceptable.

Under the guise of a ‘conservative educational centre’, it actually serves as a meeting place for the extreme right and specifically promotes an ideological agenda.
