Grieving Father Confronts White Supremacist Protest Organizer After Son’s Murder
A small protest organized by “Protect White Americans,” ostensibly to condemn the racially charged stabbing death of Austin Metcalf, drew far more law enforcement and media than attendees. The protest sparked a heated confrontation between organizers and Metcalf’s father, who rejected their attempt to politicize his son’s death. Both the Metcalf and Anthony families have endured online harassment and threats since the incident. Misinformation surrounding the case, including false reports, has spread widely online, prompting warnings from authorities.
