MI: Protesters wave Nazi flags outside performance of 'The Diary of Anne Frank' in Howell
For at least the third time in recent months, white supremacists with Nazi flags protested in Livingston County, this time outside of a production of the play “The Diary of Anne Frank.”
The incident, which was captured on video, occurred Saturday night outside the American Legion Post 141 in Howell, where the iconic play about a young Jewish girl hiding from the Nazis during World War 2 was being staged by the Fowlerville Community Theatre.
In the video, recorded by former Post 141 Commander Bobby Brite, a group of people can be seen waving Nazi flags across the street from the post, while deputies with the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office are nearby with the lights on their vehicles activated as traffic passes by.
A press release from Livingston County Sheriff Mike Murphy says deputies responded just before 8 p.m. Saturday to the post, technically located in Howell Township, on the report that five demonstrators wearing face masks had pulled into the parking lot to demonstrate against the play.
“The demonstrators were asked to leave the property and did,” stated the release. “The demonstrators then went across the street and waved flags adorned with nazi (sic) insignia. A subject then approached them, and an argument ensued. Nothing physical transpired and ultimately the parties involved separated.”
