As police prepared for
a White Lives Matter
march through downtown,
David Sproles, a financial
adviser at Edward Jones,
decided to board up his
office and another one
nearby. The company
sent a crew, just as they
would for a hurricane.
The cost: $2,890. Another
rally took place in nearby
Shelbyville; afterward,
marchers gathered at a
park in Chapel Hill.
