To the editor:
“The conglomeration of hate that assembled, and murdered, in Charlottesville has no place in our society. Supporters of their cause shall have no allies or sympathizers in our circles. We stand united against all nazis, local and national. We stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters who embrace our collective diversity and continue the fight for equality for all.”
