ATU in Washingon D.C. Stands Up to Hate

The Amalgamated Transit Union, Washington D.C.'s public transportation Metro’s largest union, leaked plans that the system is considering providing separate trains for white nationalists attending the so-called “Unite the Right” rally next weekend.

The Amalgamated Transit Union has stated that it refuses to accommodate the hate groups.

In hierarchies, many times the top groups assume that the rules only apply to them. Republicans including Trump have championed laws that state that people can discriminate against others because of religious or personal convictions, implying that only their hierarchical religions matter.

If they pass the "religious freedom laws," hopefully many, many people whose religion revolves around equality and justice will call out Trump supporters and Republicans and refuse to serve and support them.
