Very powerful alliance if we could only stop the 1 percent from dividing us along racial lines.

At least half if not more of the protesters are white.

(10,047 posts)8. I expect that some of the boogaloo
could be responsible for the fires, they are looking to use the situation for their own agenda. There is video of the auto place last night that burned down and it was a white dude, on his own breaking the windows and being confronted by other protesters.
