WHITMER SAYS WHITE PROTESTERS ARE RACIST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Sunday said gun-toting protesters who demonstrated inside the state Capitol in opposition to some of her moves to battle the coronavirus “depicted some of the worst racism” and “awful parts” of U.S. history.
Whitmer made the assertion on CNN, before the release of the latest number of deaths in Michigan related to the coronavirus. Officials say the 29 new deaths, which increased the number to 4,049, was one of the lowest daily increases since the pandemic began in Michigan.
Confirmed cases in Michigan rose by 547, bringing the total to 43,754.
During the CNN appearance, Whitmer said the protests featured “Confederate Flags, and nooses,” as well as swastikas. Members of the Michigan Liberty Militia protested the state’s stay-at-home orders this week, some with weapons and tactical gear and their faces partially covered.
“Some of the outrageousness of what happened at our capitol depicted some of the worst racism and awful parts of our history in this country,” she said. GRA:Condemning whites,who are protesting the shutdown,as being racist,but not pointing out outrageous black behavior,concerning safety measures ignored by blacks,is racist AND dishonest as well.Another rally is scheduled for this Thursday.
