The girl, from the Czech Junák - český skaut (Scouts and Guides of the Czech Republic) is holding a sign which reportedly says "We will raise your children"— a Scout motto — and is protesting against an extreme right rally held in the Czech city on 1 May. 

The World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM), which re-shared on Facebook the picture originally taken by Vladimír Čičmanec, said in a post:

"People from all walks of life, and #Scouts among them, came to the streets during an extreme right march yesterday, to express their support for values of diversity, peace and understanding. Creating a better world!"

Some people shared on Twitter different angles from the scene:

Anička Čámská, a member of the Czech Scout organisation, shared more information about the protest:

"There was some kind of far-right march, so a bunch of people went there as well to protest in a peaceful way — they were dancing and painting. Later, more people came to protest against neo-Nazis with drums and so on," she said in a Facebook post.
