You see This is How Chicago Deals With these Dumb White Power People. I Love Living in Chicago. Also i checked out the Blogs on that so called "white power" website they were pretty pissed they got Owned. I am glad that no one got hurt "either side" but i think that racism needs to stop.
HOW IT WENT DOWN
It was a beautiful Sunday Spring afternoon where the Illinois National Socialist Front were supposed to march for “White Pride World Wide”. But for the few Nazis that dared show their face in the city of Chicago, there was nothing but a barrage of blows raining on their parade.
Southside ARA had been scouting in the downtown area early on, watching out for neo-Nazi skinheads and other white supremacists. Within minutes of their pathetic march of four boneheads waving white pride flags, clandestine anti-fascists took formation and confronted them, successfully delivering U-lock justice to the unsuspecting Nazi trash with trained precision. In broad daylight on Michigan Avenue, Nazis helplessly had flags ripped from their hands and were beaten down as pedestrians watched in awe. Later, a police car pulled up and arrested the bewildered and injured boneheads while the anti-fascists swiftly disappeared into thin air. Showing up seconds later, the pro-diversity / anti-hate rally laid the final icing on the cake by surrounding the humiliated and obviously defeated boneheads and taunted them with chants, holding a rally directly in the path of their march.
With only a handful of white supremacists willing to publicly show their faces, it was evident that local neo-Nazis were not willing to get behind the NSF. In fact, the NSF didn’t even show up to their own march; intelligence gathering showed that they had dropped out of participation just before the march and had handed it over to other local neo-Nazis, unwilling to complete what they had started.
THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE NSF
Several months ago Chicagoland anti-fascists launched a campaign against the NSF utilizing a diversity of tactics including face to face confrontations, flyering the neighborhoods and schools of individual members, posting their home addresses and phone numbers, initiating phone campaigns focusing on key Nazi organizers, and multiple cases of successful infiltration of their ranks.
These tactics have achieved successes in that the NSF has become ineffective: six months ago they were openly organizing barbeques, protesting “black on white hate crimes”, and the opening of a Holocaust Museum in Skokie, etc. Their most recent attempt to march in Chicago was a complete failure, their recruitment gatherings have dwindled, their website went down for a month at a crucial time for promoting the White Pride March, and they have not responded to phone calls or emails from people asking about public information concerning their events.
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
While it is easy for us to see a neo-Nazi march as an intrusion of racism into our community, we must also address the way that racism affects our city on a daily basis. Two weeks ago, a homeowner in Mt. Greenwood posted a sign in his front yard stating “No to the Ghetto … White Power”, and if you read recent newspaper headlines you can see the aftermath of Jon Burge and the inherent racism of the Chicago Police Department. Confronting neo-Nazis and other white nationalists is only the beginning of eliminating racism, and we intend to align with other organizations to further combat forms of racism that exist in extremist groups as well as in sectors of society that are less blatant yet no less important.
CONCLUSION
We effectively came together as a city to successfully kick the Nazis out of town. Fierce resistance was delivered and everyone got away without arrest or injury. To the defeated Nazi scum reading this, give it up! ARA is everywhere.

STATEMENT FROM WHITE POWER WEBSITE
Recently rumors have been circulating on the Illinois National Socialist Front's involvement in the White Pride World Wide march that was originally scheduled for Sunday March 21, especially considering that the march was initiated as a project of our own. As many of you are aware, there has been a surge of anti-white activities around Chicago in an attempt to hinder our progress toward a nation for proud white people; even to the extent of them physically attacking us.
I regret to say that after alot of thought I and others in the INSF have determined that this march would be a futile and dangerous attempt to civilize an overly mud blooded city. Our recent efforts to move into Chicago have been frustrated by the realization that this city is full of people that refuse to call themselves National Socialists while trying to reap the benefits of our movement. There is a severe lack of sincerity within certain NS individuals; they critique race mixing but yet some of there prime members are guilty of it. Are we the only ones who haven't dipped into the multi racial kool-aid?
Chicago is like South Africa, no longer a safe place for true white people.
It is not that we fear repercussion from homosexuals, commie trash, or any illegals; quite the opposite. We believe in keeping our white comrades out of harms way, unlike some of our previous White Nationalist leadership such as Matt Hale. But this isnt the end of the road. There is much work to be done in other places where hope still exists...and I strongly encourage other pro-white groups to do the same. If you are serious, get in touch. If not, then play skinhead in some other city.
Philip Anderson, Illinois National Socialist Front

The Streets are Watching is a 50 minute video that takes a fresh look at police accountability through the eyes of three communities; Denver, Cincinnati and Berkeley. Independent filmmaker, Jacob Crawford, weaves three cities responses to police brutality into a single tale of community empowerment and direct action. Within an amazing collection of footage that portrays police conduct and misconduct, the film conveys basic legal concepts that can provide practical help to groups and individuals seeking a clearer understanding of their rights when dealing with police. The film is divided into sections that explain our basic rights, tactics for documenting police activity and ideas for further action and organizing.

Walter and Albertina Sisulu came to Detroit in 1997 seeking investment from African American business. The couple spoke about the future of the New South Africa. The couple answered questions about land redistribution,the end of the Cold War, Education, South Africa's role in African politics and its relationship with Africans in the diaspora.
Now over 11 years latter the video is useful in evaluating how well the ANC has done in delivering on the promise of the South African Revolution.

With Black History month approaching, I felt that this would be a topic to discuss. There is even a black man running for President now....so, how is it that things like the man in the picture (Frank Jude - Milwaukee, WI) are still going on? I also wanted to include in this comment/question a link to a site that address this question in a positive way....
By looking at the history of black folks in America, we understand this system's general attitude/stance towards blacks (especially males...see Black Holocaust Museum http://www.blackholocaustmuseum.org/ for more information). It's high time some true media coverage be given to this subject....racism today...because it DOES exist!

The following are examples of ways white individuals have privilege because they are white. Please
read the list and place a check next to the privileges that apply to you or that you have
encountered. At the end, try to list at least two more ways you have privilege based on your race.

___ 2. I can go shopping alone most of the time, pretty well assured that I will not be followed
or harassed.

race widely represented.

existence of their race.

supermarket and find the food I grew up with, into a hairdresser’s shop and find someone
who can deal with my hair.

against the appearance of financial responsibility.
___ 8. I am not made acutely aware that my shape, bearing, or body odor will be taken as a
reflection on my race.
___ 9. I can worry about racism without being seen as self-interested or self-seeking.
___ 10. I can take a job or enroll in a college with an affirmative action policy without having my
co-workers or peers assume I got it because of my race.

___ 12. I can choose public accommodation with out fearing that people of my race cannot get in
or will be mistreated.
___ 13. I am never asked to speak for all of the people of my racial group.
___ 14. I can be pretty sure that if I ask to talk with the “person in charge” I will be facing a
person of my race.

been singled out because of my race.

The incident that Rosenberg is talking about involves Ashley Baker, a white former associate editor at Glamour, who touched off a firestorm of controversy last summer when she told a roomful of female attorneys at law firm Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton that afro-style hairdos and dreadlocks are Glamour "don'ts."
" 'No offense,' she sniffed, but those 'political hairstyles really have to go,' " reported American Lawyer magazine, which first broke the story.
Stripped of its appalling delivery, was Baker's observation wrong?
"Black hair is sensitive," said Anna Holmes, the managing editor of Jezebel, a celebrity, sex and fashion blog for women, which followed the Baker story closely. "What Baker said was inappropriate, but was she inaccurate? No. She hit a nerve ... society is uncomfortable with ethnic hair and it is uncomfortable about race. And it's tough talking about all of it because emotion gets in the way."
Over the years, lawsuits have been filed against companies for discriminating against black employees for their ethnic hairstyles. Corporate-image experts, both black and white, subtly advise black women to remove their braids, dreadlocks and other ethnic hairdo before interviewing at corporate jobs, experts confideThe incident that Rosenberg is talking about involves Ashley Baker, a white former... more

When the Lakewood community discovered that Joel and Candra planned to expose their history of racism and anti-semitism in a documentary, they banded together. First the police illegally confiscated Joel?s videotapes; then some neighbors used the Phoenix Prosecutor?s office to charge Joel with harassing the neighbors, by filming on the streets of Lakewood. After a letter writing campaign (with help from the local Women In Film) that pointed out the legalities of filming in public (we had already checked with the local film commission and police offices) Joel and Candra had their videotape returned. However, Joel was brought to court; denied the right to show any evidence supporting his innocence; and sentenced and fined for harassing the neighbors, though he only filmed on public streets.
