Reframing Charlottesville’s 2017 Summer of Hate: Exhibiting Activism
“Charlottesville” has become national shorthand for a white supremacist rally which attacked an idyllic college town. But the 2017 “Summer of Hate” did not simply end in violent tragedy.
Join organizers from 2017 in a panel led by Professor Jalane Schmidt to discuss the work of UVA student and Charlottesville community racial justice activists who — despite City and University officials’ discouragement of counter-protests—organized demonstrations and events which resulted in significant anti-fascist victories. This panel discussion accompanies the exhibition "No Unity Without Justice" on display in the Small Special Collections Library through October 29, 2022.
