"Atlanta police estimated the crowd at fewer than 150 people. Many anti-fascist protesters who spent the morning marching in Stone Mountain Village came to Piedmont Park in the afternoon.
Rose said the groups had different tactics, but were in agreement about many issues.
Lecia Brooks, the outreach director at the Southern Poverty Law Center, told the crowd she hoped people would continue to be educated about the history and legacy of white supremacy.
“It’s a stain on our country’s history,” she said. “We do not need to commemorate these people.”
