(BOSTON, MA, 7/15/2022) – The Massachusetts chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MA) today condemned the distribution of racist flyers in Danvers, Mass.
The flyers, which promoted a neo-Nazi organization known as the Nationalist Social Club, were found in Danvers over the last week. They resembled flyers distributed earlier this month in Ipswich, Hamilton and Chatham, which CAIR-MA similarly condemned.
“We condemn this attempt to spread hate and intimidate the residents of Danvers,” said CAIR-MA Executive Director Tahirah Amatul-Wadud. “We urge law enforcement to be thorough in their investigation into this incident and the rising tide of white supremacist activity around our state.”
