A verified GoFundMe account has been established for Deandre Harris, the 20-year old black man attacked by Nazi’s in Charlottesville, Virginia while law enforcement watched.
In an exclusive interview with The Root, Harris details the attack and lack of assistance from officials who’s only function is to “serve and protect.”
“Me and about five of my friends were out protesting. We thought [the racists] left, but at one point they came back. Everyone was exchanging words with the group, but then the KKK and white supremacists just rushed us,”
“They were beating me with poles. I have eight staples in my head, a broken wrist and a chipped tooth,” Harris said.
“The beating happened right beside the police department, and no police were there to help me at all. My mother is now thinking about suing the city of Charlottesville,”
