I FOLLOWED THE EVENTS CONNECTED TO THE "UNITE THE RIGHT" RALLY YESTERDAY as closely as I could on the Internet. Thank God I don't have TV to influence me with a totally distorted picture of what took place.

Today, the best write-up I've found about it is on the Alt-Right.com website itself. Written by Vincent Law, it's title sums up the main take-away from the aborted rally very well: “Charlottesville Was A Turning Point For White People In America.” Under the title, the next line adds the further key idea: “The White Civil Rights movement began in Charlottesville.” I believe this is spot-on the reality that we now have.
