White nationalist rally at University of Virginia


Hundreds of US white nationalists have rallied at the University of Virginia, protesting against plans to remove a statue of a confederate general.

The group waved torches and chanted "Jews will not replace us" and "white lives matter" as they marched through the Charlottesville university.

There were clashes with counter-protesters, while the local mayor condemned the march as racist.

A larger "Unite the Right" rally is planned in the city on Saturday.

The protesters are angered at the planned removal of a statue of General Robert E Lee from Charlottesville. Lee commanded forces of the pro-slavery Confederacy in the US Civil War.
