## Caption

#OTD in 2017, a "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, turned fatal when an Ohio man accelerated his car into a crowd of counterprotesters, killing 32-year-old peaceful counterprotester Heather Heyer.

Today and every day, we remember Heather's life and legacy.

Her contribution to the fight against hate and her tragic death helped galvanize a generation of activism against far-right extremism.
