Snap action: protest nazi recruitment event
The National Socialist Network - a Nazi Organisation - have called a "White Power Lifting Meet" at the Legacy Boxing Gym in Sunshine. These are the Nazis that have been calling stunts around Melbourne and Geelong against trans people, migrants and refugees.
The Legacy Boxing Gym is their hub. Last year we held a rally in Sunshine after the NSN had a national meet-up, boxing competition and organising meeting.
Just 2 weeks ago they held a stunt in front of the Geelong Town Hall where they held up an anti-migrant banner. The fact that they feel confident to do this is concerning.
This Saturday they are holding a "white power lifting meet" at the Legacy Boxing Gym, and 'seminars' on Sunday at an undisclosed location. It's a clear sign that they're expecting to be able to meet new people and recruit them to their group.
What we need is a fighback against them.
Join our counter-protest on Saturday to push back against the confidence and ability of the far right to grow in Melbourne. Bring as many people as you can and share the event on Facebook and Instagram!
