Will anyone from the media ask him this?

Good question. And why are so few (are there any?) DCUM posters who are on Nathan Phillips' side willing to condemn the behavior of the Black Hebrews?

If Philips has been a white vet with a MAGA hat the boy would have ave bowed and stepped aside. Own it MAGAts.

The Black Hebrews were a-holes, the Catholic boys were assholes. There.

So Phillips claims a group of boys removed themselves from the march and began to intimidate the Black Hebrew Israelites. (I've been around a long time, and I've never heard of this religious sect.) Phillips said he got between the groups - calling them beast (the boys) and prey (the Black Hebrews). According to splcenter.org, the BHIs earned themselves a page . . . He did say that the BHIs retaliated with some harsh words.

What are the other accounts? Apparently, this is just a "slice of life" unframed by the greater context.

Good for them. This should have never happened.

Frivolous lawsuits are clogging up the courts. Those boys were no angels.

Catholic Mom here

I'd actually be pretty damned proud of my kid keeping his composure after the social media mob began attacking.
And, as for the school.........reports are they are considering lawsuits against some media companies and people on Twitter.
Several attorneys have offered their services pro bono. I hope they do and I hope they win big.

This public mob mentality. needs to be stopped.

Best news of the day.

Why are we so worried about these white boys when so many other injustices get ignored?

Conjecture on your part. If the boy had not been wearing a MAGA hat, the left wing media would have viewed their encounter like Woodstock.

The kids had no obligation to move for Phillips. He walked into their gathering, perhaps because he felt his presence would calm them in the face of the harassment coming from the black Hebrew Israelites or perhaps because he knew he could get free publicity. Either way, he could have walked around them.

The adults attacking children deserve to be shamed and held liable.

The children failing to respect their elders and our veterans need to be ashamed and their parents scorned for failing to raise respectful children.

So basically social media reported this incident as a completely racist white teen male smirking at a tribal elder when in reality it was a bunch of high school kids being chanted at by some of DC's crazies. This upcoming generation of kids are going to be hardened, extreme racists if social media keeps this up.

There was a LOT going on at this point. Watch the entire one hour video.

Then remember:

These boys had just been on an all day protest/march for something they believed in.
They were told to gather at the steps to go back to their hotel or wherever, for the night. They were assembling where they were supposed to.
They were being yelled at by some crazy dudes.
They were getting hot from being yelled at.
They started doing some school cheerleading type cheers. Some kids say it was to drown out the taunts from the Black Hebrew guys. Maybe it was just to focus inward on their group, show some group unity. Maybe it was to be aggressive back.
Yeah, maybe some of them yelled back at the Black Hebrews in response to being taunted.

AT THIS POINT Mr Phillips walks in, playing what he calls a "peace song" but what sounds to me like a lot of drumming.

The boys are all gathered in a group near the steps. Mr Phillips walks RIGHT INTO them. He doesn't walk around them to get to the top of the steps to meet his friends. He stops. He looks into the group.

Some of the boys start chanting and singing and hopping in beat to the drums. They are smiling. It is not at all clear to me that they are mocking him. They might be incorporating their school cheers into his song. They are heated up, revved up from events.
I don't know how you would expect the type of music Mr. Phillips is playing, to calm these kids down at all. It was drumming.

The boys did NOT approach Mr Phillips as he was peacefully playing music, and disrupt him. Mr. Phillips walked right up to and into their group, and then is complaining to the media that he felt surrounded, had no escape, and could not get through the group.

To require the teen boys at that point to back down, to walk away, to stop singing and chanting along with the music, is not to understand human nature. My own teen boy would probably have been singing and jumping up and down to the music at that point.

It is very hard to know how cell phone video would interpret your actions in such a situation.

Watch the complete video.
