NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Multiple Tennessee lawmakers took to social media Saturday afternoon to notify the Nashville community about a group of masked people marching through downtown with swastika flags.

Just before 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 17, State Rep. Justin Jones (D-Nashville) posted a video on X — formerly known as Twitter — showing a group of people in red shirts and black balaclavas walking along the sidewalk on the other side of the street, with some of them carrying flags bearing the swastika.

Just left an event honoring a Black sorority and spoke of the need to unite against the rising tide of white supremacy, only to be confronted by Nazis marching through downtown Nashville.

This is exactly what my Republican colleagues hate speech is fostering and inviting.
