In a demonstration against hate and racism, University of Virginia students held a vigil Wednesday night, retracing the steps white supremacists marched nearly a week ago, according to a news release from the school.

UVA students and faculty were joined by members of the Charlottesville, Virginia community in a powerful display of solidarity in the face of violence that resulted in three deaths and dozens of injuries.

The demonstration was the first large event held by the UVA community since the "Unite the Right" rally.
