Activist and University of Virginia Professor Jalane Schmidt and organizer Grace Aheron will share their experiences as influencers in the efforts to organize resistance to the white supremacist Unite the Right Rally that occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia on August 11 and 12, 2017. Highlighted across international news outlets, August 11 and 12 were more than just two days, they were the result of centuries-long white supremacy building power in that town and across the nation.
