People are needed to demonstrate against an Alt-Right rally on Berkeley campus.

The National Policy Institute is holding a rally on Berkeley campus at Sproul Plaza, 3PM on Friday May 6th. On their Youtube page, the NPI posted a video featuring Richard Spencer, who states the intention of appearing on Sproul to create a "safe space" for the Alt (Alternative) Right. The Alt Right movement is associated with far right politics including white supremacy.

Come to Berkeley to demonstrate against a Alt-Right rally on Sproul Plaza at 3PM, tomorrow Friday the 6th of May. Take a stand against the National Policy Institute, which seek to inflate racial divisions. The NPI is a white supremacist organization that supports Donald Trump's candidacy for presidency. Be aware that on their website (http://www.radixjournal.com/), there was an announcement that they intend to live stream their rally, so people might want to mask-up, if they are uncomfortable being filmed.

Richard Spencer, the organizer of the rally, has been using social media to gather people who believe in his racially charged philosophy. The National Policy Institute promotes ideas such as intellectual differences between races. Spencer is an ardent support of Donal Trump, who he calls "the Napolean of the Current Year" Spencer calls for white people, particularly white men, to "oppose the system" and to defend the white race against an alleged threat from multiculturalism. Spencer also is a strong promoter of Islamophobia.

Take a stand against The National Policy Institute, and against Richard Spencer. Gather in Sproul Plaza at 3PM, and be part of a counter-rally against the Alt-Right and against Trump.

May 14 is the campus wide graduation date, which means finals are going on now. The various departments have their own graduation date in this school of 38,000 students. It is also strange that they chose 3 p.m. on a Friday during the final exam period. When people get done with their exam, they leave and the social scene is minimal.

The majority of the students at this very elite rich folks' finishing school, UC Berkeley, are not white European descendants. See http://opa.berkeley.edu/uc-berkeley-fall-enrollment-data
The largest ethnic group are Asian Americans: 41%. White, European descendants are 24% and declining, which should not surprise anyone as California public grade schools are 25% white, European descendants in a country where the median age of white European descendants is 42 and rising, soon not statistically significant because (1) no European in their right mind comes to a country that does not even have socialized medicine and still has the death penalty and (2) the higher the level of education, the lower the birth rate. See http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sd/cb/ceffingertipfacts.asp on California public school demographics. The question must be asked, whom are they recruiting at UCB? Most white students do not want anything to do with these crackpots.

By saying no European would go to a country that doesn't have socialized medicine or has the death penalty, and then saying the non white population is growing, isn't that saying by implication that the non-whites want to live in a country which doesn't have socialized medicine and has the death penalty. I know that's not what you meant, but by using these "Statistics", you are driving wedges where they shouldn't exist.

As for who these assholes want, in a place like Berkeley where the overwhelming majority of people white and non-white are progressive, they mainly want to stir up trouble, and recruit a few (very few) white guys who believe their divide and conquer "great man" theories. However before they grow, they should be shattered literally, if possible, and ideologically even in the middle of finals.
