The Jewish mayor of Charlottesville, Virginia, became the target of online anti-Semitic and racist abuse after denouncing alt-right protests that occurred over the weekend.
Richard Spencer, a white nationalist, led torch-wielding protesters in rallying around a statue of Confederacy leader Robert E. Lee slated for removal in the city.
According to NBC News, crowds chanted slogans such as “You will not replace us,” “Russia is our friend,” and the Nazi-era phrase, “Blood and soil.”

Torch-wielding protesters, including a prominent white nationalist, rallied around a statue of Confederacy leader Robert E. Lee slated for removal and chanted racist slogans in Charlottesville, Virginia, Saturday night.
Richard Spencer, a white nationalist who popularized the term “alt-right,” led two events in the town he once attended school at the University of Virginia to defend the statue. The first rally took place as a march through Charlottesville, and after dark protesters gathered in Lee Park carrying what appear to be tiki torches. Spencer tweeted a photo of himself holding such a torch.
