I had the chance to cover the Not F**king Around Coalition's (NFAC) rally in Louisville on behalf of The Daily Beast. The NFAC is a black nationalist militia that was formed this summer by John “Jay” Johnson, who refers to himself as the “Official Grand Master Jay.” He previously assembled about 1,000 members to march through Georgia’s Stone Mountain Park in protest of a confederate monument there. Saturday’s rally took place in order to support the movement to bring justice for Breonna Taylor.
500+ NFAC members—some from as far away as Oregon—answered the call, gathering in Baxter Park Saturday morning before marching to Injustice Square (Jefferson Square Park). Johnson mentioned at end of the rally that he told Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron they would be back in 4 weeks if Breonna Taylor's case was not resolved in addition to stating a goal of organizing a black million armed militia march on Washington D.C #BlackLivesMatter
