Inside Antifa Seven Hills

by Jo Rozycki for RVA Mag

August 8, 2018

Receiving a call from a caller ID-less number was the first sign I was dealing with a group that really wishes to keep its anonymity. The second sign was when my contact told me Eric wasn’t his real name.

This was my phone call with Antifa Seven Hills.

For those who are unaware of the group, Antifa Seven Hills is one of the many anti-fascist organizations across the country that organizes to quash fascism, racism, and other evils within their communities, and hopefully worldwide.

Spreading the Memory of Dan & Spit

A few months ago, the Torch Network called for a day of action in remembrance of Dan Shersty & Spit Newborn on July 4th, the anniversary of their passing. We were happy to see this quickly gain traction, as it is important to take time to reflect and appreciate the struggle of those before us, just as it is important to take time to appreciate our own. It was particularly valuable to have a casual, positive focus on a holiday that we are fairly cynical about.
 
We tossed around some different ideas, but nothing seemed completely original. Meanwhile, between our social media presence and others helping to spread the call, it seemed that a pretty significant audience had already been reached online.
 
We thought that if we really wanted to share their story, we should go beyond engaging our own milieu. In fact, many of the folks who had already been made aware through our sharing the call to action were eager to check out for the duration of the holiday, whether to take advantage of the day off or to avoid the intoxication of patriotism. Meanwhile, the online chatter seemed sufficient, and limited in its own way.

SELF-CONFESSED PEDOPHILE AND WHITE SUPREMACIST RUNNING FOR CONGRESS IN VIRGINIA

The following is a copy of the article published in RVA Mag by Landon Shroder on June 1, 2018.

Nathan D. Larson, as outlined in the article and title itself, is a self-confessed pedophile and white supremacist running for office in the so-called Commonwealth of Virginia. This person presents a clear and present danger, physically, emotionally, and psychologically, to communities he inhabits and all beings in his presence.

Antifascists of the Seven Hills call on all people of good conscience to limit, obstruct, and prevent this poor excuse of a human attaining any further power, “legitimate” or otherwise.

It is our understanding that he lives with his parents at 9270 Prospect Ave – Catlett, VA 20119-2039

Lies, Damned Lies, and Cameron Padgett: The Secret Life of the Atlanta-Area Racist Who Books Richard Spencer’s Campus Visits

The following report from Atlanta Antifascists discusses Cameron Padgett, the young white nationalist behind the booking of various Richard Spencer events.

Cameron Padgett, who books speaking events for white nationalist leader Richard Spencer on US campuses, has cultivated a media persona as a clean-cut, law-abiding student who cares deeply about free speech and advocacy for white people. In reality, the campus events organized by Padgett for Spencer show military-style coordination with white nationalist groups and predictably lead to racist violence. Contrary to his friendly media face, Padgett is an active participant in the white supremacist movement. Padgett took part in a racist torchlit rally in Charlottesville, Virginia during October – eight weeks after the “Unite the Right” rampage there – and soon after livestreamed himself harassing a working class Latinx community in Atlanta. Padgett frequently rails against the “degeneracy” of the modern age, while being careful to conceal his own history of forgery and drug charges in Chatham County, Georgia. When Padgett received a ticket while driving to the October white power rally in Charlottesville, Padgett gave the address of Safety Net Recovery, a sober living program. Drug use and addiction do not deserve contempt. We condemn Padgett’s racism, his scapegoat politics, and his hypocrisy.
