He Will Not Divide Us (HWNDU) was an event started in January 2017 to oppose Donald Trump. It was described as "performance art", and was lead by Hollywood actor Shia LaBeouf.
A camera was placed on an outside wall in New York City, and people were encouraged to stand in front of the camera and say "He Will Not Divide Us". The camera was filming on a 24 hour livestream.
People from 4Chan turned up to joke and troll on the livestream. Trump supporters were accused of sabotage.
Originally in New York City, the project spread to other cities, though unsuccessfully.
Beginning
At 9 a.m. on January 20, 2017, HEWILLNOTDIVIDE.US was launched. It was described as a participatory performance installation to coincide with the inauguration of Donald Trump as United States President. A camera was set up on a wall outside the Museum of the Moving Image in New York City, with the words "He Will Not Divide Us" written directly above. Passers by were invited to deliver these words into the camera "as many times, and for as long as they wish," in what the artists described as "a show of resistance or insistence, opposition or optimism, guided by the spirit of each individual participant and the community." The footage was live-streamed on a 24/7 feed, which the artists announced would run for four years, or the duration of Trump's presidency. Jaden Smith was one of the earliest participants in the project
Trolling
Lots of people went to New York specifically to troll and have fun. The MSM called those who trolled "alt-right extremists".
YouTuber Brittany Venti made a number of appearances, trolling the crowd.
“The Jewish word for "division" or "to divide" is Soros. #NoSoros #Shadilay”

Some Trump supporters played "capture the flag", in which they removed the HWNDU flag and replaced it with a MAGA one.[2]
In Liverpool, England, the exhibition was removed after "illegal trespassing".[3] [4]
Official narrative
Wikipedia says the exhibit had become a target for confrontations by neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and 4chan trolls.
