Charlottesville and the Death of Free Speech recounts the full, true story of what happened at the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, from the pen of Jason Kessler, the man who organized it.

Swirled in misinformation and conspiracy theories from both the left and the right, Kessler — a journalist with bylines in VDARE, Counter Currents, and The Daily Caller — walks the reader through the true story of the tumultuous first year of the Trump presidency, with anti-speech riots from Antifa and Black Lives Matter rocking cities from Washington, D.C. to New Orleans and Berkeley before finally culminating in a deadly government trap in Charlottesville, Virginia. There, the incredible happened: police aided and abetted a riot to shut down a permitted free speech event. Helicopters fell from the sky, cars crashed into protesters and dozens were wounded.

The media would have you believe this is the fault of the permitted protesters, who, with the help of Kessler and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), effectively relitigated the territory of the famous Supreme Court case, National Socialist Party of America v. Village of Skokie, protecting the right of Nazis to march in a Jewish suburb of Skokie, Illinois. Charlottesville and the Death of Free Speech collects 7 years’ worth of research from Kessler’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, civil lawsuits, and meticulous research, proving definitively that decision-makers in the Charlottesville and Virginia government, intentionally sabotaged the rally and then destroyed critical evidence in a desperate cover-up.

You will not want to miss out on having this handsome, lovingly crafted primary source document on your bookshelf – in either hardcover or in paperback – as a treasured jewel in your library collection.

Charlottesville Vice-Mayor Wes Bellamy had repeatedly insulted White men and women on Twitter. This was my first opportunity to confront him after the scandal broke.

Standing up for the Alt-Right's free speech and against ethnic replacement in White homelands. This is a prime example of my oratory around the time of Unite the Right and provides an example of what my speech my have sounded like if we had been allowed to speak on August 12. Context is controversy surrounding the first torch demonstration which occurred on May 13, 2017.

(Road to Unite the Right 10/13/16) I attended a "free speech" symposium hosted by the Thomas Jefferson Center for Protection of Free Expression. The context was that a UVA lecturer named Doug Muir was being harassed by a cancel mob after posting on Facebook that "Black Lives Matter is the most racist group since the Klan."

At this point, I was an inexperienced public speaker and in a transitionary period as I shifted from the political left to the political right.

Panelists included left-winger Dahlia Lithwick of Slate magazine and Kelly Carlin, daughter of the late comedian George Carlin. Dahlia Lithwick is a Jew who attended synagogue with the Jewish Mayor Mike Signor and brought in her friend Robert Kaplan to sue protesters after the August 2017 rally.

Discussing the complex character of the 21st century Howard Hughes: Elon Musk. Lets discuss his free speech agenda, the mission to Mars, Space X, the Fermi paradox, self-driving cars, underground civilizations and his dust ups with Jewish power.

Since the original Alt-Right crashed and burned in 2017, the White identity space has been dominated by something calling itself Christian Nationalism, which is often a parlor trick substituting the less controversial “Christian” identity as a euphemism for White.

Its amazing how much of the New Left's radical rhetoric and social analysis could apply to the Dissident Right as well. Their successful protest tactics are still misunderstood to this day.

It seems to me like these folks were doing some things right, honestly. Their messaging was tight, direct and unpretentious. Their graphic design for websites and stickers was top notch and their protests were very professional if unambitious.

My feeling is that there is some truth to the criticism about forming a political organization around a celebrity cult of personality. But I think the main thing I see is that they were too insular, only trusting a small clique, unable to grow sufficiently, not welcoming folks outside the TRS sphere and not employing a visible public strategy for success.

As I stated before, I hope everyone in and out of NJP will use this as a learning experience and evolve rather than devolve into pettiness and anger.

Transcript:

"We're coming back here like a hundred times. I am so mad. I am so fucking mad at these people. They don’t do this to fucking me. We’re going to fucking ritualistically humiliate them. I am coming back here every fucking weekend if I have to. Like this is never over. I win. They fucking lose. That’s how the world fucking works. Little fucking kikes. They get ruled by people like me. Little fucking octoroons. My ancestors fucking enslaved those little pieces of fucking shit. I rule the fucking world. Those pieces of shit get ruled by people like me. They look up and see a face like mine looking down at them. That’s how the fucking world works. We are going to destroy this fucking town."

James Fields accelerated towards the crowd at approximately 23 to 28 miles per hour. His vehicle is struck at least twice before he drives into the crowd: first by a long-haired ginger male bashing the rear driver’s side bumper with a wooden flag pole. The impact makes a loud sound (like a gunshot from Dwayne Dixon’s rifle perhaps). The second strike came to the front passenger side from a rioter with a club or other blunt object. The video is not especially high quality, and very pixelated further away from the camera, but it appears there may have been a third attacker, a Black male in a black t-shirt attacking with his fists, also from the front right-hand side.

Several left-wing rioters in Charlottesville attacked his car after the crash. Its important to know by inference that they were back there because he had previously tried to back out of Fourth Street and may have been prevented from doing so.

White advocates are not represented in modern politics. I outline how our interests are not represented in the border crisis, the 2024 election, Israel and "racism" on campus. I outline why we are not a power player in these political affairs and how that can change

-nonviolence is not lack of action

-it is an assertive strategy which can be employed in a military style campaign with the objective of obtaining power & influence

-optimal strategically for dissident groups in so-called "liberal democracy"
