Jack Smith IV is a journalist who attended the Charlottesville Unite the Right counter-protest. Prior to Charlottesville, he was arrested for obstruction at the Standing Rock protests. He claims to cover the far-right and white supremacy and appears to have used questionable tactics. He's seen in one photo posing as a Proud Boy. It appears that he was trying really hard to make Jack Smith V. He was fired from his job at the left-wing website Mic for abusing women. According to the media outlet Jezebel, "All of these women accuse Smith of behavior they variously describe as emotional abuse, manipulation, and gaslighting. Three of these women say independently of one another that these tactics led to coercive sex.” He's described by the women who know him as, "Aloof, entitled, and kind of a prick." His Twitter feed is strangely inactive for a journalist with no Tweets since 2019. Smith lives somewhere in New York City, probably in Manhattan where the media types usually live. https://archive.vn/HYTyA, https://archive.vn/uqYkQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Apu_i9KAmoE&ab_channel=TheOpenMind

Nupol C. Kiazolu attended the Charlottesville Unite the Right counter protest as a teen. She also participated in the Minneapolis riots and took footage of the arson and looting (https://youtu.be/G5o375s01qA?t=176). She's prone to hyperbole: she claimed to have "almost lost her life" on the front lines in Minneapolis. She also described Charlottesville as "one of the deadliest acts of white terrorism in U.S. history" (didn't only one person die?). She calls herself a young black woman from the hood. She first became an activist at age 12 after the killing of Trayvon Martin. Kiazolu is the current President of the Youth Coalition of Black Lives Matter NYC but she often claims to be President of the entire NYC BLM organization. Kiazolu won the coveted Miss Liberia USA crown in 2021. She's reportedly set her sights on the Miss Somalia crown but she's going to have to slim down to compete with the skinnies. She's a pre-law student at HBCU Hampton University in Virginia. When she's not at college, she lives with her mother in a questionable neighborhood in Brooklyn. https://archive.vn/QUd28f, https://archive.vn/nndcg, https://archive.vn/uD4N1, https://archive.vn/Xv6zZ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nupol_Kiazolu

Glenn Emile Cantave, aka "Chain Man", (DOB: 11/03/93) attended the Charlottesville Unite the Right counter protest where he claimed to have been on the front lines. He's best known for wearing chains at the riot, either to symbolize black "enslavement" or because he was trying to hook up with a gay dude into bondage. He claims he was in a Charlottesville church that was surrounded by "Klansmen" with torches. In reality, it was only members of the alt-right walking nearby while carrying tiki torches. He later ran the New York City marathon wearing chains. He's part of the statue movement and attempted to have the Columbus Circle statue of Christopher Columbus removed. Cantave works as an artist and film maker. He runs the non-profit Movers & Shakers NYC and organized a slave auction as performance art. He also gave a TED Talk on how augmented reality is changing activism. He has a B.A. in government from Wesleyan University. Cantave lives in a little house in the Long Island town of New Hyde Park. https://archive.vn/vMl12, https://archive.vn/BC6qq, https://archive.vn/v91XP, https://archive.vn/X1acc, https://archive.vn/EMhED

And now we just saw with this verdict that came down and actually gave the fascist and these white supremacists, a green light to murder protesters." She also protested in favor of the guilty verdict in the Ahmaud Arbery case. https://archive.vn/vDJxi#selection-993.157-993.168 https://archive.vn/md0XX#selection-1831.360-1831.372 https://archive.vn/YycfS#selection-1523.235-1523.246

Christopher "Chris" Flanagan is a former New York City math teacher who posted an Instagram message in January 2022 that suggested cops should be mowed down by an SUV. Surprisingly, the left-wing NYC school district fired him for his comments. His previous claim to fame was holding tribute concerts dedicated to pandemic first responders from his apartment window. While there's no record of his arrests at the massive NYC riots in 2020, anyone who advocates violence against police is an Antifa ally. Flanagan lives in the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Brooklyn. https://archive.vn/paILJ, https://archive.vn/sgWkI

He spray painted a disabled man's SUV, making sure he covered the Blue Lives Matter bumper sticker. Then he attempted to "de-arrest" Charles Edmonds, a New Jersey middle school teacher. Freeman was charged with rioting, resisting arrest, criminal mischief, graffiti, unlawful assembly and possession of graffiti instruments. He was previously arrested last September for vandalizing a subway station.

Chivona Renee Newsome (DOB: 12/31/84) is a BLM leader and the sister of notorious BLM leader Hawk Newsome. She co-founded the New York City chapter of BLM with her brother. The siblings appear to have received their radical streak from their mother who was a Black Panther associate. Newsome attended Howard University and then Fordham where she earned a bachelors degree. Newsome used to work as a financial adviser but apparently thought taking bribes as a New York politician would be more lucrative. She ran unsuccessfully for a Congressional seat in 2020 but came in 8th place in the Democratic primary with about 2% of the vote. According to her biography on Ballotpedia she has worked tirelessly leading protests and seeking justice for the families of police brutality, she works with members of LGBT community, victims of human trafficking, the mental health community, women's reproductive rights organizations, and housing justice advocates. In a sit-down with the mayor-elect in November 2021 she agitated the mayor by saying, "politicians shuck, jive and use rap quotes but don’t enact meaningful changes for people of color." She blamed the mayor's angry response on misogyny or ageism. She lives in the Bronx. https://archive.vn/1JZOM https://archive.vn/b0mEZ https://archive.vn/M6YbY https://archive.vn/6el5P https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonninewsome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkbWnt2K02A&ab_channel=BronxNet

Newsome is a BLM leader who claims to be Chairman of Black Lives Matter, a statement that is disputed by other BLM leaders. He wants to defund the police and treat crime like a public health crisis. He was also allegedly one of the organizers of the Charlottesville Unite the Right counter protest although some sources claim he didn't attend. In 2020 he defended looters and compared America to terrorists. He took credit for the 2021 election of Eric Adams as New York's second black mayor. In November 2021, he threatened violence if mayor elect Eric Adams reinstated the NYPD plain clothes police division. Newsome is quoted in the New York Post as saying to the mayor, "If they think they are going back to the old ways of policing then we’re going to take to the streets again. There will be riots. There will be fire, and there will be bloodshed." Despite his attempt to look street tough, he doesn't have any arrest records. He claims to be a tee-totling Baptist who attends church every Sunday. Newsome holds a law degree which he says helps him monitor the police. He claims to weigh 300 pounds but from photo evidence that's doubtful (although his fellow BLM activist sister may weigh that much). He drives rented vehicles and wears a bullet-proof vest for security purposes. As you might have guessed, he's a bit of an egomaniac and his Twitter feed portrays him as a black pharaoh. His sister Chivona Newsome is also a BLM activist.

She's a radical Roman Catholic pacifist and member of the St. Patrick's Day Four as well as the Plowshares movement. She's also the sister of fellow radical Teresa Grady. In 2003, Grady and three others defaced the military recruiting center in the Ithaca suburb of Lansing, New York by pouring their own blood on recruiting posters and the walls. She was found guilty of a Federal misdemeanor. Grady also participated in 2018 in the King's Bay Plowshares action which the group trespassed at a nuclear submarine base in Georgia. The group wore black bloc garb while conducting their action at the sub base. She was charged with the Federal crimes of criminal mischief, conspiring to impede a federal officer and trespassing at and damaging a government facility. She was later sentenced to a year and a day in prison for her crimes. Even though the radical left usually hates organized religion, the Anarchist Black Cross (ABC) has apparently adopted the King's Bay group and encouraged young anarchists to write to the group when they were in prison. Interestingly, the ABC includes an inverted cross in their logo, a symbol usually associated with Satanism. Although her most prominent "actions" took place before Antifa rose to prominence, Grady obviously holds many of the same political beliefs. She stile lives in the Ithaca, New York area where she works for a charity as a "kitchen coordinator". She supports herself by working as a massage therapist and dance instructor.

Burns is a radical, Roman Catholic pacifist and one of the St. Patrick's Day Four who spread their own blood inside a military recruiting station in a suburb of Ithaca, New York in 2003. Burns was convicted of damage to government property and entering a military station for an unlawful purpose (both Federal). He was sentenced to six months and ordered to pay restitution. He later traveled to Guantanamo Bay as part of a delegation from Christian Peacemaker Teams. In 2012, Burns flew to Pakistan to protest the U.S. drone "occupation" of the country. After returning from the Islamic country, he said he felt "spiritually recharged". He worked for twenty years in the film industry, and is a member of the Directors Guild of America. To actually support himself, he walks dogs and paints houses. Burns stared as himself in a movie titled "The Trial of the St. Patrick's Day Four". He's an associate of Clare and Teresa Grady who also participated in the "action". He presumably continues to reside in the Ithaca area. Burns and his group pre-date Antifa but if Antifa had been around in the early 2000s it's likely they would have been allies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Saint_Patrick%27s_Day_Four https://archive.vn/5ofJY https://archive.vn/41GBn https://archive.vn/69bvd https://archive.vn/2jynx
