Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Neo-Nazis, Blood Tribe, chanting Heil Hitler while flying Swastika Flags.
A neo-Nazi group of around 20 people marched through this Midwestern capital city on Saturday morning brandishing black-and-white swastika flags, chanting “There will be blood” and saluting Adolf Hitler.
The group wore shirts labeled “Blood Tribe,” identifying them as members of a white supremacist group that the Anti-Defamation League says “openly directs its vitriol at Jews, ‘non-whites’ and the LGBTQ+ community” and “aims to usher in a resurgence of Nazi ideas and ultimately build a white ethno-state.” The group was founded two years ago and is based in Maine, where its founder had hoped to build a compound, but has adherents elsewhere.
Just before 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 17, State Rep. Justin Jones (D-Nashville) posted a video on X — formerly known as Twitter — showing a group of people in red shirts, black pants, and black balaclavas walking along the sidewalk on the other side of the street, with some of them carrying flags bearing the swastika.
“Just left an event honoring a Black sorority and spoke of the need to unite against the rising tide of white supremacy, only to be confronted by Nazis marching through downtown Nashville,” Jones wrote. “This is exactly what my Republican colleagues hate speech is fostering and inviting.”
A News 2 employee spotted the group on Broadway shortly afterward and took a video. In that video, you can hear the marchers chanting, with one person yelling, “Deportation,” and others following with “Saves the nation.”
