Southern Heritage Groups to
Protest Against the NAACP & Scalawag Mayor in Augusta, Georgia
October 7th, 8th & 9th
Brigadier General E. Porter Alexander Camp #158, Augusta, Georgia,
requests the support of all Southern patriots and Southern heritage
groups to participate
in the protest of the removal of the 2nd National Confederate
flag from a display of historic flags along Augusta’s Riverwalk. This
flag has flown on Riverwalk for over 20 years. Augusta’s scalawag mayor,
Bob Young, carried out this cowardly act of political correctness in
order to appease the perpetually offended NAACP racist agitators.
The annual South Carolina NAACP Convention will be held at the
Radisson Riverfront Hotel in Augusta from Thursday, October 7th,
thru Saturday, October 9th. The protest location is 10th
and Reynolds Streets. We’re
asking anyone that is available to please come to Augusta and assist us
on Thursday and/or Friday, if only for a couple hours, to join those
that will be flagging throughout the day those two days, starting
between 9:00 & 10:00 a.m. We need to have a presence of “Flaggers”
representing us on Thursday and Friday before the big event on Saturday,
October 9th.
On Saturday, we plan to start at 9:00 a.m. and flag until 2:00
to 3:00 in the afternoon. Saturday is the day that we need to have the
largest attendance.

The South Carolina League of the South was at the vanguard in planning
and organizing this protest against the NAACP for their economic boycott
of South Carolina long before the removal of the flag on
Riverwalk became the primary issue in this upcoming event.
