The city of Huntington Beach is co-sponsoring a virtual event on Sunday afternoon, at the same time that a “White Lives Matter” rally has been scheduled near the Huntington Beach Pier.
The virtual event, called “H8 Free HB,” will be taking place on Zoom at 1 p.m. and can be accessed at

Carr said that Sunday’s presentation will be one hour and will include other elected officials, including state Sen. Dave Min (D-Irvine). Min’s district includes Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach and Laguna Beach, along with other Orange County cities.

Tempers flared at Monday night’s Huntington Beach City Council meeting, as a clear divide has been established on the dais on the issue of mask usage during the coronavirus pandemic.
Mayor Pro Tem Tito Ortiz and City Councilman Dan Kalmick, each of whom were elected in November, were at the heart of the dispute.
Following a COVID-19 update by City Manager Oliver Chi and Huntington Beach Fire Department Chief Scott Haberle, Kalmick addressed the council. He noted that two of the seven members, Ortiz and Erik Peterson, were not wearing masks.
