White Supremacist Propaganda Focused on Jews and Immigrants in 2024
href=”https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounder/goyim-defense-league”>Goyim Defense League (GDL) continued to distribute propaganda that casts aspersions on Jews and spreads antisemitic myths and conspiracy theories in hopes of turning Americans against Jewish people. GDL’s 2024 propaganda included baseless charges about Jewish power, blamed Jews for 9/11 and accused Jews of blood libel and pedophilia.
ADL documented propaganda distributions by the New England White Network (NEWN) for the first time in 2024. The small, New Hampshire-based group put postcard-style propaganda on community bulletin boards, along hiking trails and on magazine racks. One of NEWN’s antisemitic fliers titled “Boycott Jewish businesses,” encouraged white New Englanders to start “separating themselves from Jewry as a whole.” The card blamed HIAS (Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society) and other immigration agencies for replacing white New Englanders with non-white immigrants. NEWN also distributed antisemitic postcards titled “Biden’s Slew of Jews,” claiming the Biden administration was “saturated by subversive, loxist [sic], supremacist kikes.”
Like NEWN, propaganda from the Florida-based National Socialist Front (NSF) included fliers that blamed HIAS for America’s immigration crisis. Another NSF flier, distributed in California, condemned the U.S. House Resolution 6090, known as the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023. The flier, titled “Stand Against Zionism,” stated, “We say enough! Americans, reject Jewish control!”
Previously active primarily in Florida and Texas, Order of the Black Sun, a small neo-Nazi group, distributed propaganda around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that read, “Caution! There’s [sic] kikes in your area,” “Jews control mass immigration” and “Jews control pornography.”
Several groups and networks also distributed antisemitic propaganda specifically mentioning Israel and Zionism including the Active Club network, American Blackshirts and the New Jersey European Heritage Association (NJEHA).
Anti-Immigration
White supremacists sharply focused their hate on immigrants and refugees in 2024, framing migrants as “invaders” and therefore a threat to white Americans.
In September 2024, following a viral, racist disinformation campaign focused on Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, a range of white supremacist groups held demonstrations and distributed anti-immigrant propaganda in the city. Patriot Front hung a banner that read “deport them all” on an area overpass; individuals associated with the White Lives Matter (WLM) network held a banner in front of city hall that read in both English and Haitian Creole, “Haitians Have No Home Here;” the Ohio chapter of the Aryan Freedom Network posted images of recruitment propaganda they claimed to have distributed in the area; and there were reports of fliers promoting the Trinity White Knights that read, “Foreigners & Haitians Out.”
Patriot Front’s anti-immigrant propaganda heavily reflected their
