Why are the white supremacy and the counter-protesters fighting ? Please I need this for a school assignment!!
kramer
These individuals are fighting because they have conflicting ideas. One side believes that white people are superior to every other race, while the other believes all races are equal, and not one is better than the other.

It is because of this strong disagreement that these people are at each other's throats. Add in an immense passion for your beliefs, and that can spark violence.

Hopefully, this helps! =)
