Its happening; its happening! Better pack your bags! Inside the American Id: Chilling With the South’s New Secessionists 22,053 9 Adam Weinstein Profile Follow The opening shot, the Fort Sumter of the newest campaign to take back Dixie, was a billboard. Months ago it appeared on the parkway in Tallahassee, just east of the Capitol, positioned so you could see it and the edifice of Florida government side-by-side, the sun popping off both of them together at daybreak. Most of the sign was taken up by six big black letters on a white background: SECEDE. It was the work of the League of the South—long labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center—which had planned to build media buzz with the billboard, leading to a rally on the Capitol steps to protest illegal immigrants. The League hoped for its biggest coup yet, double the size of any of its previous demonstrations. The event's Facebook page announced: "100 is our magic number… 100 Southern nationalists in Tallahassee. Come on, we can do it!" "We just think that there needs to be a representative voice for all those common hard-working Southern folks out there that don't have a voice," the group's founder, Dr. Michael Hill, told me. "We basically are dictated to by people from other parts of the country whose worldview is completely different from ours." Now, with the crud-crusted Florida winter broken at last, it was time for the demonstration. Sunburn was possible again. The long-absent birds were shaking off their silence on the statehouse grounds. A breeze picked up as I surveyed the army's assembled assets: five blue blazers. Seven cavalry-style cowboy hats. Seven pairs of cargo pants. One makeshift SWAT-type uniform. One long beard, red. One leather jacket, accompanied by double-clutch boots and a clanking chain wallet. Two hundred copies of the Free Magnolia, the League's samizdat newsletter. All together, forty or so souls. Four women, including the club photographer; maybe two or three under 30; one teen, in an aqua American Eagle polo. Expand The League's Tallahassee billboard, just up the road from the Capitol.
