Neighbors on a block of
Blaine Avenue in Sugar House in Salt Lake City
got a rude delivery to their front doorsteps: Hate disguised as their morning newspaper.
Blaine Avenue in Sugar House in Salt Lake City
got a rude delivery to their front doorsteps: Hate disguised as their morning newspaper.
They found fliers from a neo-Nazi group based in Detroit, Michigan wrapped with a rubber band around copies of The Daily Utah Chronicle newspapers. Some got a flier condemning “interracial marriage” and others got one entitled, “Take back of America from the Jews”.
“I was not surprised when I got the call,” said Ron Zamir of the United Jewish Federation. “In times of economic woes in hour history, antisemitism and bigotry and bigotry against blacks tend to rise.” He said some people tend to look for scapegoats for their own worries and problems and those scapegoats almost always are people who are “different.”
Since the fliers were found only on the one block and since there are two multicultural families on that block, the fear is that they were the targets of the flier attack. That also implies that a local distributed the fliers.
