Counter-protest against Nazis happening right now in Riverside, California (9/26 @ 11 am)

Breaking news from Riverside
(Saturday Sept 26 @ 11 a.m.)

More than 70 people people including day laborers, MEChA activists and anti-authoritarian anarchists are holding a counter-protest against Nazi activities today in Riverside, CA. Their goal is to shut down an Nazi rally before it can begin.

The Nazis are expected to rally near a Home Depot where day labors gather for work, and may attempt actions against a local camp where many day laborers live.

Participants in the counter-protest report that anti-racist activists arrived at Riverside City Hall about two hours ago, then began marching toward the expected Nazi rally site, to arrive there before the Nazis do, with the intent of shutting down the rally before it can start.

A more detailed report from the scene is expected later.
