A Tennessee social justice center that has hosted iconic civil rights leaders was destroyed in a fire and a "white power" symbol was found on the site, the center said. The symbol, which officials did not describe but said was connected to the white power movement, was discovered after the main office was completely destroyed in a fire last week, the Highlander Research and Education Center said in a news release Tuesday. It was spray-painted on the parking lot connected to the main office. No one was hurt in Friday's blaze.

First thing that came to my mind.

I can see the light of a thousand Reichstag fires.

What is a “White Power” symbol?

I’ve never seen one before.

My default position is fake hate crime until proven wrong.

I agree...

I believe none of this crap including the statue removal would be happening if Obama hadn't been President. He's giving everyone cover. Michelle is so anti-white, it's pathetic.

Were Jussie and his Nigerian ‘trainers’ visiting Tennessee at the time?

Just asking.

I'm guessing it was torched for the insurance.

Smells like fake “hate-crime” number 20,000 to me. Let’s stay on top of this story, and see if we find out how much insurance they collect because of the fire. A lot of arsons are insurance fraud.

Investigators’ due diligence should include an examination of the center’s financial and insurance records. That should be fairly routine in suspected arson cases.
