Story out of Ann Arbor, Michigan:
A group of racially charged flyers appeared on the central campus of the University of Michigan on Monday morning, drawing condemnation from top U-M officials, according to a statement from the university.
The posters were taken down Monday morning by a student who spotted them, officials said.
One poster argued that white women should not date black men, while a separate poster depicted a “STOP!” sign while urging “Euro-Americans” to stop “living in fear” and “denying (their) heritage,” according to a tweet from U-M’s Black Student Union.
The posters both carried an “Alt-Right” (Neo-Nazi) logo. They first appeared in Haven and Mason halls, according to the statement, which denounced the posters and said they “espouse a racist point of view.”
The flyers come less than one week after a similar incident at Eastern Michigan University: racial slurs and the letters "KKK" were spray-painted in red, white and blue on the side of a campus building. The rest of the message said, "Leave" followed by a racial slur for black people. The messages sparked a protest with more than 150 students. Cont.
