THREAD: This is Steve Hartley, President of the Philadelphia Proud Boys, an @splcenter-designated hate group.
He's Logistics Manager for @Amexpediting, a same-day courier service.
@Amexpediting, do you really want to give a hate group member access to people's home addresses?pic.twitter.com/IHZuCUVjqn

4) And who is Sal Cipolla? He's a neo-Nazi who openly posts literal antisemitic Nazi propaganda on Facebook.pic.twitter.com/CNKc7lbBk6

7) You can call
@Amexpediting at (484) 540-8180 to tell them that one of their employees, Steve Hartley, is the President of the Philadelphia Proud Boys, a violent hate group.Show this thread -
8) Nationwide, the Proud Boys are a threat. They showed up in Providence on 10/6 to attack protesters. And in NYC on 10/12, the nine Proud Boys beat three protesters. Harrisburg PA Proud Boy Max Hare is facing felony charges for that now.http://gothamist.com/2018/10/23/proud_boys_arraigned_nyc.php …

9) And yet,
@Amexpediting is okay with giving not just a member, but a chapter President, Steve Hartley, people's home addresses as part of his work duties. Call them and tell them that's not okay with you: (484) 540-8180pic.twitter.com/2Pq2f15ZUG

10) The police won't protect us here, folks. We need to step up and protect our own communities. We need to show these people that hate has consequences. And you can do that with the direct action of getting them fired.

11) Getting fascists fired works. The people of Philadelphia stood up two weeks ago to say "NO" to hate and get Proud Boy Andrew Kovalic fired.https://www.phillymag.com/news/2018/11/14/comcast-fires-proud-boys-employee/ …

13) So contact
@Amexpediting and tell them that their employee, Steve Hartley, is a member of the Proud Boys, a violent hate group. And that he poses for photos in Proud Boy shirts while giving the "okay" sign, a symbol associated with white nationalism.Show this thread -
14) We can do this, folks, but it takes all of us. We have to be willing to stand up and fight to protect our communities. This is all of our work, and it's not easy, but we can do it. All of us together? We got this.
