Assemble at 11:30 AM on the Southwest corner of
Constitution Ave NW and 14th St NW
Neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement Plans to
Rally on National Mall near Washington Monument

On, April 19, 2008, at 12 PM (noon) the neo-Nazi,
white-supremacist organization known as the
?National Socialist Movement? is planning to
march and rally ?against illegal immigration? on
the National Mall in Washington, DC, on the North
Side of the Washington Monument. The monument is
located to the South of Constitution Avenue NW,
between 15th St NW and 17th St NW.

Coming on the heels of the racist immigration
ordinance passed in Prince William County,
Virginia (and similar laws passed elsewhere in
the US), and coupled with the alarming rise in
the number of known hate groups in the United
States, we feel that the march of these racist
bigots must be confronted vigorously, and with strength.

Despite claims that those opposed to immigration
are concerned about ?the rule of law?, terrorist
groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and the National
Socialist Movement have always attempted to blame
immigrants, African-Americans, Jews,
non-heterosexual people, and all people of color
for what they perceive to be ?societal problems?.
It is clear that their hatred is based on racial
prejudice, and the law is merely an excuse to
spread their white supremacist beliefs. We
believe that it is not any coincidence that
xenophobes and white supremacists share views on immigration, and immigrants.

The National Socialist Movement, according to
their website, are ?America's Nazi Party?, and
are ??inspired by our Fuhrer Adolf Hitler.? The
group is currently, according to the
Anti-Defamation League, the largest neo-Nazi
group in the United States, largely due to the
implosion of several other neo-Nazi groups.

They are the same organization that, in order to
stir up hatred, marched in Toledo, Ohio (in 2005)
in a neighborhood largely made up of people of
color. They did indeed, get a reaction, as riots
ensued, and the Nazis, and the police protecting
them, were run out of the area for a time.

We invite all those opposed to fascism and racism
to come and confront this very real, and
dangerous neo-Nazi group. Gather at 11:30 AM on
the Southwest corner of Constitution Ave NW and
14th St NW (the Mall side), to assemble before confronting the fascists.
