Local activist and musician Cameron "C-Grimey" Williams is under investigation for allegedly burning Chattanooga Public Library books by conservative authors.
Williams, a local rapper and activist known for his role organizing protests against police brutality, was placed on paid administrative leave from his job as a library services coordinator this week after video surfaced of him apparently burning books by President Donald Trump and conservative commentator Ann Coulter, according to a spokesperson for the library.
In a video posted temporarily on Instagram on Tuesday, Williams appeared to burn copies of Coulter's "How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)" and Trump's "Crippled America" in an outdoor fire, spraying each with lighter fluid. "FDT," a Trump protest song by YG and Nipsey Hussle, played in the background.
