Earlier today, CAIR condemned the distribution of antisemitic flyers in neighborhoods and parks in Boulder City, Nev. Last year, CAIR similarly condemned distribution of hate materials in Warwick, R.I.
“All Americans, regardless of their faith or background, must stand up to repudiate the racist hate being promoted in neighborhoods nationwide,” said CAIR Research and Advocacy Director Corey Saylor.
He said CAIR and the American Muslim community stand in solidarity with all those challenging antisemitism, systemic anti-Black racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, white supremacy, and all other forms of bigotry.
