Torch March at University of Virginia
On the night of August 11, 2017, torch-bearing white supremacists descended on the University of Virginia, led by organizer Elliot Klein and chanting racist slogans. The march culminated in a violent confrontation with counter-protesters, with pepper spray, fists, and torches used against the anti-racist group. The following day's rally led by Richard Spencer resulted in chaos and Heather Heyer's tragic death, leading to trials and convictions of several individuals involved.
