Amid a tense election climate, a white supremacist march has reemerged, this time in Nashville, Tennessee, where around 150 hooded members of a far-right white supremacist group demonstrated in an act that organizations condemned amid a growing wave of hate crimes.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the country's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, condemned the act on July 6 by a group calling itself the Patriot Front.

Men wearing white bandanas, sunglasses and baseball caps marched through downtown Nashville with a banner reading "Reclaim America" and a Confederate flag.
