Racist Flyers Are Posted on the Campus of Weber State University in Utah

Racist flyers were found posted on the campus of Weber State University in Ogden, Utah. The flyers were recruiting students to the Alt-Right movement and declared that “diversity is a code word for White genocide.”

Posters advertising the screening of the documentary film From Slave to Criminal With One Amendment were torn down around the same time that the racist flyers were posted.

Weber State University enrolls more than 26,000 undergraduate students and nearly 700 graduate students, according to the latest data supplied to the U.S. Department of Education. Blacks make up just 2 percent of the undergraduate student body.
