That was said by one of trump’s well known white supremacist followers.
I will call them out for what they are. They are not Alt Right, Alt signifies alternative. There is no acceptable alternative. Calling them Alt Right, makes it seem like they are less dangerous.
So yes they absolutely want erase all the progress made in the 60’s.

Side note, any democrat spouting the nonsense of getting away from “ “culture issues”and paying more attention to “the people “ should be primaried. You clearly do not understand the danger or not up for the fight.
