“White supremacists pose a clear threat to members of minority communities and to our nation as whole,” said CAIR National Communications Coordinator Ismail Allison. “We welcome this arrest and urge law enforcement authorities nationwide to crack down on the growing danger of violent white supremacist hate groups.”
He said the American Muslim community and CAIR stand in solidarity with all those challenging anti-Black racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, white supremacy, and all other forms of bigotry.
