Pertaining to the Antifa/Proud Boys threats to the march, in which the people involved with those groups may be provacateurs, I remember watching Eyes on the Prize, many episodes on the Civil Rights Movement, and there was a story about a group that got cornered in a church basement by rabid inflamed Klan types. Someone there started singing hymns and spirituals, and it stopped the aggressors completely. That this would happen is born out by recent interdisciplinary research into the evolutionary nature of music. Just a strategy in case of emergency while backing away and filming. In Oakland and here in Detroit, the provacateurs often arrive after dark, and there's heavy Goliath investment in trying to channel this second civil rights movement into one of the binary political narratives. So many will be with you in spirit!
