Ok, the bad news first.
As reported by One People’s Project, KSS was able to put on their White Power show in Lebanon, PA. This is (at least) the fourth time the same volunteer fire department has hosted an event by KSS in the past several years. Word is out in Lebanon, so let’s hope some local people mobilize against them for this.
Now, the good news.
The Tinley Park 5 Benefit was a big success. Thanks to everyone for coming out and helping us raise about 500 dollars for the TP5. This doesn’t even scratch the surface of their bails, but it will make their time in jail a lot more tolerable by allowing them access to better food and the ability to make phone calls.
There was some unwanted attention from Philly PD early in the evening. Apparently the cops were there to “protect us” because of some “threats” against the show. Thanks but no thanks. Anyway, the threats never materialized and the show went off without a hitch.
Special thanks to all the groups that tabled the show and especially all the bands that played. Check out this video of Erik Petersen covering Chumbawamba’s “The Day The Nazi Died,” a favorite of us here at Philly Antifa.
Finally,
Again coming from OPP:
ATLANTIC CITY, NJ—A Sept. 16 benefit event at the Golden Nugget Casino that promoters said was to raise money for the families of injured and fallen workers, but was done in the name of the late founder of the largest and most violent neo-Nazi gangs in the state has been canceled.
“Sorry to have to announce this event will not be happening,” Butch Bradley, a stand up comedian and brother of Atlantic City “Skinheads” (ACS) founder Bryan Bradley posted on the Facebook page he set up for the event which was to benefit The Bryan P. Bradley Foundation for Fallen and Injured Workers. “Too many schedule conflicts in order to do this right I’m going to have to take more time. Thank you all for your support and understanding.”
Despite attempts to blame the cancellation on “scheduling conflicts,” the announcement to cancel came after several attempts by Butch Bradley to get OPP to take down their articles about his brother and the event, and there has been no word about a rescheduled event.
So, all in all, not a bad week to be Antifa.
