Neo-Nazis, racist skinheads, Christian Identity followers, and other white nationalists are planning a rally against the “genocide” of white South Africans on Monday, February 27th, 2012, from noon to 3:00 PM. I am calling for Occupy Oakland to endorse the call to shut the Nazi rally down with a counterdemonstration. I apologize for the short notice, but I had not realized the need for support until recently. We will meet at 8:00 AM and our convoy will leave from OG Plaza at 8:30 AM and reach Sacramento at about 10:00 AM, where we will join up with other anti-fascists in a counterdemonstration to stop the Nazis. I hope you all will support this proposal to stop the spread of fascism in CA. We have to remind these ignorant people that fascism and racism will never be tolerated by the people of Oakland and the 99% of California. According to the Anti-Defamation League, around 30 organized Neo-Nazi groups from California will be at this rally. I ask you to stand with all of those who have been targeted, beaten, and killed by Nazis for being people of color, queer, Jewish, or anti-racist. Even Hitler said that the only way for fascism to grow is for it to first be ignored.
According to the ADL:
“A coterie of American white supremacists is working to organize nationwide protests on February 27, 2012, as part of an effort dubbed the South Africa Project (SAP). This project’s goal is to stop the alleged “genocide of whites” in South Africa. Participants and organizers include representatives from all five of the major white supremacist movements in the United States (Neo-Nazis, racist skinheads, traditional white supremacists, Christian Identity adherents, and racist prison gangs). In particular, adherents of the racist and anti-Semitic religious sect Christian Identity are involved with the protests.”
Taken from the South Africa Project, which rails against Jews and communism, a protest is planned in Sacramento on February 27th. You can view their very poorly designed flyer at: http://www.southafricaproject.info/awareness_march_ca.pdf.
One of the groups sponsoring the event is the Golden State Skinheads, a racist skinhead group that has organized demonstrations in the past in central California. View their site here: http://www.goldenstateskinheads.com/aboutus.html.

Events are organized by a wide variety of Neo-Nazi skinheads, Klan, and white nationalist groups. Stop the Nazis in their tracks!
