A group of five black men shouted insults while protesting centuries of oppression. Catholic high school students gathered in Washington to protest abortion. And Native Americans marched to end injustice for indigenous people around the world. These three groups met for just a few minutes Friday at the base of Washington’s Lincoln Memorial. The unexpected meetings were captured on video. Short parts of those videos then went viral on social media in the United States. They cast attention on a deeply divided nation that seems unable to agree on anything. At first the attention of the internet centered on a short video of one of the high school students, Nick Sandmann. He wore a red “Make America Great Again” hat, demonstrating his support for President Donald Trump. In part of the video, he appeared to be smiling and facing off against a 64-year-old Native American, Nathan Phillips, who was playing a traditional song on a drum. Sandmann’s classmates gathered around the two, laughing.
