A white supremacist hate group marched in downtown Kansas City on Saturday (May 24) amid Memorial Day celebrations.
According to KCTV, Patriot Front, a white supremacist hate group, convened in downtown Kansas City wearing white face masks, hats, and sunglasses to obscure their faces along with matching khaki and navy outfits.
Patriot Front members carried altered or upside-down American flags as they took over the city ahead of Memorial Day. Videos online showed the group loading into several large U-Haul trucks before departing to another location.
“We condemn this attempt to promote white supremacy and urge all community leaders and elected officials to similarly reject racism and all other forms of bigotry,” CAIR-Kansas City Board Chair Moussa Elbayoumy said in a statement.
Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas also spoke out about the gathering, calling out the tweeted about the group’s gathering, calling out the group's message of hate and cowardice.
In a video shared on X, Thomas Rousseau, the rally's leader, delivered a speech during which he claimed that a “war was being waged" against white people.
“We are disenfranchised, demoralized, and downtrodden people,” he added.
“We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White children.”
