Dozens of white nationalists marched through the University of Virginia campus on Friday night carrying torches while chanting You will not replace us.
The demonstrators, who also yelled "blood and soil", a phrase tied to Nazi ideology, made their way through the Charlottesville campus before encircling a group of counterprotesters gathered around a statue of Thomas Jefferson.
A fight broke out, and some of the white nationalists swung their tiki torches at people, according to the Daily Progress.
Protesters wielding torches march through campus chanted "You will not replace us".
Members of both sides were reportedly hit with pepper spray, and several people were treated at the scene for minor injuries.
Police arrived on campus, declared it an unlawful assembly, and ordered the crowds to disperse. At least one person was arrested.

Why do I suspect it didn’t transpire quite like the story tells it?
“Richard Spencer attended the rally, and the Unite the Right organizer Jason Kessler called Friday’s march a “incredible moment for white people. (RICHARD SPENCER VIA TWITTER)”
Spencer is an idiot.
It's tough to put a good spin on:
Incredible moment for white people who've had it up to here & aren't going to take it anymore. Tomorrow we #Unitethe Right #Charlottesville.
Half the time, I can support what Spencer says, the other half, I want nothing to do with him. He sometimes does the right things or argues the right points, but for the wrong reasons. There is a big price tag for his friendship.
Ring around the rosey,
Buckets full of dumb,
This bunch and then that bunch all a marching,
Ain’t we having fun?
Everyone’s divided,
Because some just hold a grudge,
But it isn’t other folks neighborhoods,
They’re burning, says this judge.
Torches all a waiving,
Emboldened to the call
Will any give them credit if they act better than y’all.
Each say they are defending,
Responding to the threat,
No one setting their anger aside now,
It ain’t over yet.
Ring around the rosey,
Buckets full of dumb,
With everyone a’marching,
This is getting old...
Gezzz...
Thank God we’ve got Timpanagos1 to tell us Spencer’s an idiot.
Probably funded by Soros. He loves agitation and division, like his Master, Satan.
That one will hit the news cycle.

“Probably funded by Soros.”
That may be the case, but the stooges are out there.
Thank you, Timpanagos1, for being the conscience of FR.
We really appreciate that.
It’s like when you posted the results of the French election. You posted from the leftist Guardian.
That was really helpful.
“Its like when you posted the results of the French election.”
Did other news sources have French election results that you would have found more favorable?
Brawls erupt with who?
Antifa? NAACP? The MSM? The same people who are out to destroy Trump?
We can do without the jackass leftist perspective, thanks.
It’s not about suspecting, it’s about wondering how things have come to this juncture. In that case, it’s not such a wonderment.
Maybe they were just people who may be uncomfortable with white nationalism.
Thanks for your concern.
