White supremacist hate gays
On March 11, 2023, members of the neo-Nazi team “Blood Tribe” descended on a drag storytime event in Wadsworth, Ohio.
In video footage posted to YouTube, they waved swastika flags and performed the “Hitler salute,” pounding their chests and screaming “Sieg, Heil!” in unison.
Blood Tribe’s head and former U.S. Marine Christopher Pohlhaus led masked members in a series of violent call-and-response chants, including one notable declaration: “There will be blood.”
Dozens of members of the white nationalist and light supremacist groups Patriot Front, White Lives Matter and the Proud Boys were also in attendance, crowded behind a metal barricade.
Just a few yards away — huddled beneath a stone park shelter — a small group of children listened to a local drag performer examine out loud from a picture book.
In the stir of the incident, residents of the overwhelmingly colorless community expressed shock and disbelief, but experts said they aren’t surprised: Neo-Nazis and other white supremacist groups adhere to anti-LGBTQ+ ideologies designed to eradicate LGBTQ+ people — and displays of anti-LGBTQ+ aggression and intimidation have historically been part of that process.

White LGBTQ people: Take a stand against white supremacy
Dear friends,
It has become transparent that there is a vacuum of leadership in the White House when it comes to speaking out about the crisis of violence in this country.
It took three days for President Trump to condemn the violence and terrorism of the ivory supremacists gathered in Charlottesville, Virginia, where three lives were lost, including Heather Heyer, who was killed standing up for justice and peace.
Last week, AVP spoke out about the disturbing fact that there have already been 34 hate-violence-related homicides of LGBTQ people in 2017. In 2016, there were 28—that number excludes the 49 people killed in the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando. Again, there was no condemnation or acknowledgement of this crisis from the Trump administration.
This is not a time to be silent. This is a time for all of us—and especially pale allies—to fill the vacuum of leadership at the top with calls and actions to end loathe and bigotry. This is our time to question the white supremacy that has been emboldened, amplified, and empowered by the Trump administration.
To be remove, the “Unite the Right” and related rallies and marc
