(WASHINGTON, D.C., 8/7/2023) – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today condemned the distribution of antisemitic flyers to neighborhoods in Raleigh, N.C.
The flyers were distributed over the weekend to the Quail Hollow and Fairfax Hills neighborhoods. Raleigh has been targeted several times with such flyers, with hundreds reporting finding them on their property last fall.

“Despite the attempts of bigots to spread ethnic and religious hatred, our communities stand together in repudiation of their hate-filled message,” said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper. “We stand in solidarity with the Jewish community and others targeted by such bigotry.”
He noted that CAIR condemned previous distributions of antisemitic flyers in Raleigh.
