Reporter witnesses 'surreal' moment when 'mostly black families' rally to support police while Antifa protests

Reporter witnesses 'surreal' moment when 'mostly black families' rally to support police while Antifa protests: Talk about narrative-busting. Just weeks after Oakland lawmakers voted to slash funding from the Oakland police department, a reporter witnessed what he called a "surreal" moment in Oakland on Saturday — black families rallying to support police while "mostly white" Antifa protesters demonstrated against police. What are the details? Led by Oakland police chief LeRonne Armstrong and other community leaders, city residents angry over violent crime gathered Saturday for the "Stand Up for a Safe Oakland" rally. Journalist Lee Fang of The Intercept reported on the "surreal" scene of the rally. "Surreal moment in Oakland. About 200 mostly black families rally with police to call for an end to the epidemic of gun violence. Mothers at the stage mourning recently murdered children. In the back, less than a dozen mostly white antifa protesters assembled to jeer them," Fang reported.
