Who hate what the White Nationalists stand for. Im not trying to shut them up. Im trying to shut them down. Tonight, leaders from botho face. As our cameras roll. If the goal is an allwhite homeland how do you do that within the laws of the uni states . Youre not going to stop us. Yes, we will stop you. Fractured america. Good evening. Im elizabeth vargas. And im david muir. As we come on theair, the sense of uncertainty and unease growing throughout the country as more confederate statues come down. Just today a protest in durham North Carolina with more planned. And in the remarks by the president this week, that both sides share the blame, that there are fine people on both sides. Magazine covers pident with kkk hoods. Unparalleled access, and what led horrific horr flashpoint of tt when you look at charlottesville, especially that friday night with the tiki torches, i think the country was shocked because those folks looked like people in your neighborhood. They didnt have the robes. They didnt have the tattoos all over their body. In many cases, they looked like somebody that you might know. Reporter the shocking images, the killing in the street. Just plowed through hundreds of people. Reporter the violence in virginia last weekend was just the most recent and most tragic confrontation between White Supremacists and a militant resistance. Were seeing a period of unusual, intense polarization among the population and in the political arena. Just get over there where you belong. Reporter for the past six months weve been crisscrossing the country tracking all this political violence. Embedded with both sides, from their biggest brawls to their secret meetings. Some of what you will hear tonight will be hard to hear and difficult. But its important to understand how all this began. Our story begins here. Knock the crap out of them, would you . Seriously, okay . Just knock the hell, i promise you, i will pay for the legal fees. I promise, i promise. Reporter last year the Trump Campaign inspired many types of people. Nationalist itself the altright. President trump has denounced groups like ism is evil. Reporter but heimbach says the ion. Hes opened up a door. D up a door but its up to us to takeiative. Reporter the number of hate rose last year to near its alltime high, says the Southern Poverty Law Center. Now leaders like heimbach admit to a newfound energy. I think hes a reflection of the excitement that mr. Trump has engendered in the white supremacist movement. Get out of here. Get out out reporter thats heimbach at a trump rally last march. The guy with the beard and the red hat. Striking, and then shoving this africanamerican protester, as shes being led away. Disorderly conduct. There wouldnt be any olence at trump rallies if, ofcourse, the far left protesters hadnt gone into the rallies and tried to disrupt them. Reporter isnt there something to be said about decency. Clearly youre on that video pushing a woman from the back. You have a right to defend yo reporter the antagonists of e really a looseknit group of activists, who prefer to be called the antifa movement, short f right now, were in a very dag place. Reporter lacey macauley, a selfdescribed anarchist and selfdescribed anarchist and mildmannered worker at a nonpfew n camera forople basically have been responding by caring antifascist movement. Antifa is on the hard left. In fact, many would argue parts of them arent even left. Theyre anarchists. Reporter and theyre not afraid to play rough. In san jose up close, i saw it up close. They brutalized Trump Supporters at random. Throwing eggs at them beating them bloody, and attacking their cars. Theres no doubt that the antifa believe that physical confrontation is necessary to prevent the rise of white supremacy. Reporter the protests didnt cool down when trump won the election. The man who will be the 45th president of the United States, donald trump. Reporter the altright rejoiced. It was at this notorious conference in november that muchduced to Richard Spencer, the selfstyled intellectual who coined the term altright. Donald trump that the world is changing something new is coming into the political reality. Reportely joined in his enthusiastic nazi salute. Hail trump. Hail our people. Hail our victory. Lets not sugarcoat thi reporter for a lot of americans who saw that, it was terrifying. I knew that i was being highly provocative when i said, hail trump. I dont think theres anything wrong with saying that. Reporter to be clear, most Trump Supporters arent altright demonstrators. Most trump resisters are not antifa. But those mobilized minorities at the extremes can have a big impact. And january 20th, Inauguration Day, became dday for both sides. Many of the people 20 20 has been following for months were right in the middle of it. I, donald john trump, do solemnly swear reporter just blocks away, some members an antifa group lead by lacy macauly disrupt a limousine and scuffling with police. Theres a massive undertaking innauguration of donald j. Trump. Reporter macauly believes hate speech is the equivalent of violence, and can be answered with violence. Weve seen her take on armed White Supremacists with little more than a bullhorn. So why do these confrontations always get so violent . I mean, yes, you might have your hotheaded 19yearolds. Antifa who i know are really trying to actually act in self defense. Reporter but what about the vandalism and harassment here of an inaugural ball guest perpetrated by some of her associates, using socalled black bloc tactics . Ryone wears the same color. Hey, basic black. Y. And also just, you know, wearing the mask, to conceal your identity. Reporter the world got a glimpse of these tactics in action when some in macauleys group, clad all in black, smashed the windows of a starbucks and a bank of america. Breaking a window is a symbolic act. Windows break all the time. Things break all the time. Reporter so this is your home. If i after this interview, if i broke all your windows in a symbolic act, youd be okay with that . That would be a symbolic act. I mean, if you wanted to protest this interview, you can break the windows. Reporter and there that day at a command post in mcpherson square, Daryle Lamont jenkins, a truck driver from philadelphia who describes himself as the irt for antifa, keeping tabs on spencer,eir altright ilk. So youre a wa correct. We basically just report what we see. We go anywhere they go. Reporter on the other side, Matt Heimbach was there. And Richard Spencer turned up too. Ectelle theyll ing point. Watch this. Interview when, wait for it. A man walked up and punches him, right in the face, in the middle of thertant youre going to be attacked verbally and physicth it. Reporter the attack went viral sparking an internet debate about whether it was okay to punch a nazi. Was that okay . I think that you saw a lot of people actually very inspired by the fact that the nazis are not invincible. Of course its not okay to punch a nazi any more than its okay to punch a doctor who performs abortion, if you believe abortion is murder. The same people who insist that they aght when they are engaging in violence would be horrified if the roles were reversed. Reporter as fate would have it, just hours after spencer was punched, the roles were reversed. On inauguration night in seattl was injured by a gunshot through the abdomen. Police the only individual whos ever been shot at one of these rallies, he was an antifa member. And he was shot by a maga hatwearing trump fan. Llings in this country in the past ten years have been carried out by right wing extremists. Reporter giv that, youd think spencer and the altright might have wanted to dial things back. Getting started. Hey brought the fight to us. Heading to campus. Trying to recrui and, inside an altright conclave. You never know who youll meet. Im a baptist preacher, so i got to maintain a low profile. Reporter stay with us. Cameras. Introducing the newly redesigned gla suv. At a price thatll make you feel like youve gotten away with something. The 2018 gla. Lease the gla250 for 359 a month at your local mercedesbenz dealer. Mercedesbenz. The best or nothing.

Sp traveled up a Gravel Mountain ad, ne a reclaimed coal mine. Where weve managed to get special White National convened to discus topic, the future. Business as usual. This is a political revolution. Ow belongs to us. Defeat never, victory forever. Hail victory. Reporter there are several speakers here. We are white people. We are aryans. Reporter but none quite like Matt Heimbach, who is practically worshipped by many of his followers. Matt heinbach is extremely articulate, well spoken, he is a genius and they see me as their leader, the one thats fighting for and i coulthout them. Rep someone like adolf hitler . Of co we look up to him as reporter also inspired to follow heimbach here, some who prefer bapti ive mood as they pose for photo and load up on emedhias mtempts s backn to form white students groups at college campuses. Racists, fascists, antigay. Kkk, go away. Reporter today, heimbach, a delivery truck driver, and a father of two, says his moment has arrived. Is your movement on the upswing . Our movement is glogymanner. O behind the co so the klan wore hoods, thid their identity. De o we inhag ve nothi them. Ter nimbach has discovered the power of soc. Comrades. Miscarriage of justice. E white people. Its just basic like speaking videos. Im not shooting a hollywood movie, i dont need a big jewish budget. Ewish hate, do they hate me . Reporter i dont know, im we were with heimbach back in april, when he arrived at alabamas Auburn University with his posse. Hes here to support altright leader Richard Spencer in a nationwide campus recruiting effort. Id2016, weve documented about 250 instances of white supremacist flyers and recruitment going on, on college campuses. We are here to be able to ensure that they hear spencers message. One that should inspire the white students to love their people. Reporter private school educated, from a wealthy family, sharply dressed. Spencer presents as the White Nationalist for the upper tax brackets. E nationalism more intellectualized and have a greater appeal to young people by toning down some of the more obvious uses of nazi symbology. Greatness is far more important than equality. Equality is for losers. Reporter why not call it neonazism . Whenever anyone stands up for our identity, we get called this collection of names, like, youre a neonazi. The idea that hitler has a people is just simply ridiculous. Hes a spoiled rich ki whos never had a real job other than conservative propagandist. Reporter antifa activist Daryl Jenkins has attended many spencer events and today his comrades would love to stop spencer from delivering what they consider a dangerous speech. Its not so much shutting them up, its about shutting them down. Reporter afraid of violence, auburns administration revokes spencers permission to speak. Professor geoffrey stone says caving in to the mob is a mistake. What happens then is anyone who wants to speak, if other people want to shut them down, all they basically have to do is say, well, were going to be violent, were going to disrupt, were going to riot. And then the police will go and shut down the speakers. Reporter spencer, happy to play the firstamendment martyr, takes the fight to court. We are on 85 south, and we are going to the courthouse to file a junction. Reporter hours later, the court says its a clear First Amendment issue. Auburn university cannot stop spencer from speaking on campus. Ught our chances for slim, but we did it. Reporter an hour before spencer speaks, the action outside is already heating up. And heimbachs men chant. Communist scum, off our streets communist scum, off our streets if you believe america is a communist country, youre a traitor. Reporter as students make their position clear. This is our home. Reporter finally, flanked by private security and a police escort, spencer makes his entrance. Despite a few interruptions, he makes his case. Systematic discrimination against white people at all levels of society. Reporter so white supremacy,res a white there is nothing stop an idea whose time has come. And that time is now. Reporter his followers up front cheer while the students sit in stony silence. 90 minutes later, his mission accomplished, spencer takes off, in a fast retreat. Spencer sucks. Ck reporter heimbach isnt as lucky. With no police to protect him, an angry crowd soon descends on him, and he is literally chased down the street. No nazis i crossed a rubicon long ago that im willing to die. And i that might sound stark. That might sound a little scary. Reporter a little dramatic. A little dramatic. Sure. But the fact is, you know, politics can be it can be a war. Reporter a spencer victory . Perhaps, but coming up, antifa strikes back. As neonazis prepare to descend on a small kentucky town.

Infamous for the family feud between the hatfields and mccoys remembered today in tv drama and on whimsical statues on main street. But now two more warring clans, antifa and White Supremacists, are heading here for a high noon showdown. No longer will you be the silent majority. You have a voice. Reporter this is trump country, he garnered 80 of the ba ground for his next big racist cause of creating a whitesonly homeland. Our strongest area of membership is in appalachia, and in the rust belt. This is an area wher have just been left behind by the economy, where white folks feel that they dont have an advocate. We are preparing for the worst, hoping for the best reporter because of past violence by masked antifa, the Inauguration Day action in washington, and this violent protest in february at the university of california, berkeley, pikeville city manager Donovan Blackburn is worried. The counterprotesters and the antifa are the groups that im concerned about. Reporter the city passes an order banning masks and hoods. And blackburn urges downtown shops to close.
