Charlottesville and the Death of Free Speech recounts the full, true story of what happened at the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, from the pen of Jason Kessler, the man who organized it.
Swirled in misinformation and conspiracy theories from both the left and the right, Kessler — a journalist with bylines in VDARE, Counter Currents, and The Daily Caller — walks the reader through the true story of the tumultuous first year of the Trump presidency, with anti-speech riots from Antifa and Black Lives Matter rocking cities from Washington, D.C. to New Orleans and Berkeley before finally culminating in a deadly government trap in Charlottesville, Virginia. There, the incredible happened: police aided and abetted a riot to shut down a permitted free speech event. Helicopters fell from the sky, cars crashed into protesters and dozens were wounded.
The media would have you believe this is the fault of the permitted protesters, who, with the help of Kessler and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), effectively relitigated the territory of the famous Supreme Court case, National Socialist Party of America v. Village of Skokie, protecting the right of Nazis to march in a Jewish suburb of Skokie, Illinois. Charlottesville and the Death of Free Speech collects 7 years’ worth of research from Kessler’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, civil lawsuits, and meticulous research, proving definitively that decision-makers in the Charlottesville and Virginia government, intentionally sabotaged the rally and then destroyed critical evidence in a desperate cover-up.
You will not want to miss out on having this handsome, lovingly crafted primary source document on your bookshelf – in either hardcover or in paperback – as a treasured jewel in your library collection.
