A short video urging people to vote against the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative (MCRI). The video features footage from a rally held in Jackson, Michigan by the white supremacist Council of Conservative Citizens (CofCC) and highlights the support given to the MCRI by racist groups. The "John is a Nazi" phrase that is being yelled refers to John Raterink of the Michigan CofCC who was a subscriber to the newspaper published by the neo-nazi National Alliance.
