I made a zine titled "White People Hate Protests" which compiled opinion surveys from the 1960s. You can read it here and also share it with people who flap their gums about how so many people supported the tactics of the Black freedom movement of the 60s.: queer.archive.work/library/down...
this may be a long shot but do you remember a New Yorker comic from that time where a white person pushes a black protester off the sidewalk and says something like βkeep your protests off the streetβ while every building says βwhites only?β Itβs lived rent free in my head but I canβt find it
Except when it affects them. Folks seemed to love the anti-vax protests. The (not a) trucker protest in Canada harassed a city for weeks with pollution and noise and the "wise and sensible right" hailed them as heroes.
One of the treasures in my father's jewelry box was a button he wore counterprotesting -- it looks like a white peace sign on a black background, but it's a B-52 and says DROP IT across the bottom. When I asked about it, he told me about going to the [Black] frat with his frat bros & baseball bats.
