The Insane Clown Posse’s Juggalo March on Washington, explained
Updated by Dylan Matthews@dylanmattdylan@vox.com Aug 21, 2017, 8:00am EDT
In just under a month, two groups will descend on Washington: Attendees at the “Mother of All Rallies,” a pro-Trump event which demands "protection for traditional American culture,” and a march of Juggalos — fans of the horror-rap duo Insane Clown Posse famous for their violent lyrics, rowdy music festivals, and love of face paint.
The pro-Trump rally website clarifies that “all people regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, age or political affiliation are invited.” But in the wake of violent protests by white supremacist and neo-Nazi Trump supporters in Charlottesville, Virginia, there’s a reasonable fear that event will bring similar chaos and destruction.
And this time, it’ll happen next to a group of Juggalos.
Their presence isn’t a random anti-Trump provocation, though. They have a policy agenda: The Juggalo March is the latest in a years-long campaign by the Insane Clown Posse and its fans to push back at the FBI after it deemed Juggalos a “gang” in the bureau’s 2011 National Gang Threat Assessment, a report by the National Gang Intelligence Center which sought to "examine emerging gang trends and threats posed by criminal gangs to communities throughout the United states."
“Although recognized as a gang in only four states, many Juggalos subsets exhibit gang-like behavior and engage in criminal activity and violence," the report elaborates. "Law enforcement officials in at least 21 states have identified criminal Juggalo subsets." Another, even more breathless FBI document described Juggalos as "a violent street gang."
