White nationalist fliers distributed to Iowa City neighborhood

Ugh

A surprise delivery with a white nationalist message is what people living in one Iowa City neighborhood woke up to Wednesday.

On the driveways of at least three streets of the Wetherby Park neighborhood in Iowa City were fliers with the message "Love your Race." The fliers either claim to be a message from the National Alliance, or are advertising the group by directly naming it and linking to the group's website.

It's unknown who distributed the fliers, but it was expected that it was done early Wednesday morning. The fliers were inside plastic packaging and, inside, the flier was wrapped around a monthly magazine called the "River Cities' Reader" located in the Quad Cities. The publisher of the magazine didn't immediately return a call from KWWL Wednesday night.

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, National Alliance "was for decades the most dangerous and best organized neo-Nazi formation in America," that was founded in 1970.


I bet whoever distributed these flyers loves Trump and Steve King
