Thousands March Against Hate in Charlottesville, Philadelphia and Berlin
------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Wednesday night, hundreds of people gathered for a candlelight vigil
on the University of Virginia campus to call for peace, later marching
on the same route used by hundreds of neo-Nazis and white nationalists
in their torchlight march last Friday. In Philadelphia, thousands of
demonstrators marched against last weekend's violence in a rally dubbed
"Philly is Charlottesville." And in Berlin, Germany, hundreds gathered
at the Brandenburg Gate to protest against neo-Nazi groups. This is one
of the demonstrators.

Jason, protester: "I am here because I am against Nazis. My grandfather
fought against Nazis in the Second World War, and I think it is a
disgrace that Donald Trump is not against Nazis."
