The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today condemned the distribution of white supremacist material in Idaho.
The Shoshone County Sheriff’s Office said stickers and flyers from the white supremacist hate group Patriot Front were posted around Wallace, Idaho, on Friday.

“White supremacy and all other forms of bigotry must be repudiated whenever such hate-filled ideologies are promoted in public areas,” said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper. “We urge political, community and religious leaders to reject this campaign of hate.”
He added that 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.
CAIR’s mission is to protect civil rights, enhance understanding of Islam, promote justice, and empower American Muslims.
La misión de CAIR es proteger las libertades civiles, mejorar la comprensión del Islam, promover la justicia, y empoderar a los musulmanes en los Estados Unidos.
