(WASHINGTON, D.C., 5/10/2023) – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy, today condemned an alleged neo-Nazi threat targeting a Jewish faculty member of the University of Delaware.
Campus police are investigating a Nazi swastika and a threatening message reportedly written on a poster on the faculty member’s door.

“As we have tragically witnessed, antisemitic, neo-Nazi, white supremacist hate persists nationwide, and that hatred must be rejected by Americans of all faiths and backgrounds,” said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper.

He said CAIR and the American Muslim community stand in solidarity with all those challenging antisemitism, anti-Black racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, white supremacy, and all other forms of bigotry.

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.
