“I think there’s blame on both sides… you also had people that were very fine people on both sides.” – Donald Trump, speaking at a press conference at Trump Tower in New York on Tuesday, August 15.
The beating with iron bars and lumber of a black school teacher in Charlottesville reveals the lie behind Trump’s sickening claim that “both sides” are to blame. Our photographer’s camera shows that one side are the brutalizers, the other the brutalized.
You can see more of Zach D. Roberts’s images from Charlottesville – as featured on the cover of the New York Daily News above – here. Zach also got an exclusive interview with the teacher who was beaten, De’Andre Harris, which you can find here.
