They were met by a horde of counter-demonstrators, swelling to as many as 4,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physical confrontations were promptly broken up by Berkeley police, who protected the anti-Marxist event, shielding it and escorting it out of the park. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Around mid-day, participants in a second protest, the Rally Against Hate, which began at U.C. Berkeley\u2019s Crescent Lawn earlier that morning, joined the demonstrations at MLK Civic Center Park.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mostly peaceful Rally Against Hate was joined by about 200 demonstrators from antifa also known as \u201cblack block.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clad in black with faces covered, and armed with shields, the antifa contingent climbed over boundaries that had been set up by Berkeley police, bypassing checkpoints meant to keep weapons from the demonstration area. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After antifa arrived, several Trump supporters were assaulted. In one instance, four black bloc members were stomping and beating a demonstrator, and only stopped when Reveal reporter Al Letson (who is black) got in front of the group, shielding the demonstrator from further harm. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joey Gibson, the organizer of Patriot Prayer, made a brief appearance while the demonstration was at its peak. He approached the crowd accompanied by at least one of his allies, who was clad in shoulder pads. Antifa promptly attacked with mace and sticks. Gibson then fled towards an area with heavy police presence and voluntarily placed his hands behind his back, police used zip ties to detain him. (Berkeley police later clarified that Gibson was not arrested, but temporarily detained for his own protection.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In total about 15 arrests were made, mostly for offenses related to bringing forbidden items into the area enclosed by the city of Berkeley. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The demonstration brought people from across the Bay Area and the political spectrum. \u00a0It was overwhelmingly peaceful, aside from a few incidents, with attendees singing the \u201cWe Shall Not Be Moved\u201d spiritual and chanting \u201cBlack Lives Matter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Squiggy Rubio, who came to rally against White supremacy was glad that \u201ceverybody came out and overwhelmed the neo-Nazis, White nationalist by showing them that they are outnumbered.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lily Fahsi-Haskell of Oakland said she feels it\u2019s the community\u2019s duty to show up \u201canywhere where fascists try to continue to spread fear, hatred and oppression, particularly against people of color, queer people, and women.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[su_slider source=&#8221;media: 35198,35236,35193,35183,35241,35184,35233,35220,35219,35218,35217,35214,35213,35212,35211,35234,35209,35207,35206,35205,35204,35200,35197,35195,35194,35192,35185,35191,35189,35237,35202,35223,35190,35227,35242,35238,35230,35225,35182,35181,35187,35222,35231,35229&#8243; limit=&#8221;80&#8243; link=&#8221;custom&#8221; target=&#8221;blank&#8221; width=&#8221;800&#8243; height=&#8221;540&#8243; responsive=&#8221;no&#8221; pages=&#8221;no&#8221; mousewheel=&#8221;no&#8221; autoplay=&#8221;0&#8243; speed=&#8221;500&#8243;][su_slider source=&#8221;media: 29856,29857&#8243; limit=&#8221;30&#8243; link=&#8221;image&#8221; target=&#8221;blank&#8221; width=&#8221;700&#8243; height=&#8221;460&#8243; autoplay=&#8221;0&#8243; speed=&#8221;500&#8243;][su_menu][\/su_slider]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>San Francisco: Aug. 26<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A day earlier, a similar scene had played out, with large crowds in San Francisco, leading to the cancellation of the event planned at Crissy Field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the lead up to the event, it was uncertain whether the National Park Service would grant the conservative group the permit for its \u201cFree Speech\u201d rally. The permit was eventually granted despite opposition from many including Mayor Ed Lee, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Scott Wiener. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But Gibson cancelled the event the day before, saying he would instead hold a news conference at Alamo Square. But without the proper permits, Gibson was unable to use Alamo Square, and decided hold the conference in Pacifica. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cRight now, we had to cancel the rally,\u201d Gibson told reporters via video stream from a remote location in Pacifica. \u201cWe all decided together it was the best thing to do for the city, because the way it was set up is that a lot of innocent people were going to get hurt\u2014that\u2019s a fact. A bunch of supporters, a bunch of ANTIFA communists, normal liberals would have all been mixed together, it would have been a huge riot and it would have been a disaster.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thousands of peaceful protesters surrounded Alamo Square Park as police blocked off streets for safety precautions. Eventually, the counter-protesters marched toward the Mission chanting, \u201cWe say it loud, we say it clear, fascists are not welcome here\u201d and other chants. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeople came out today to stand against Patriot Prayer and their rally for White supremacy,\u201d said Shane, a man wearing a burgundy bandana over his face. \u201cWe came out to stand against events that happened\u2014like in Charlottesville, like in Boston\u2014and to show that we as a community are stronger than hatred.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the San Francisco Examiner, Gibson and Patriot Prayer eventually made their way to Crissy Field at around 4 p.m., but were met by a man carrying two bullhorns, who drowned out Gibson\u2019s speech. An hour later, Gibson drove off.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Saturday\u2019s protests embodied the diversity San Francisco prides itself on, with people from every walk of life, race and background coming together to defend their shared beliefs.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite the cancellation of two far-right demonstrations, which were set to take place over the weekend of Aug. 26-27 in San Francisco and Berkeley, thousands of passionate counter-protesters came out in force to oppose the presence and ideology of the far-right.
