White Nationalist Fliering on American College Campuses
Some of the groups leading the way in this effort are Identity Evropa, The Right Stuff and Vanguard America. Fliering activities are an integral part of the racist “alt-right” movement as they provide a simple way for “a convert to [become] a committed supporter.” Fliers have the distinct ability to draw attention to the group and cause while keeping the member in the shadows. These incidents represent a new rise in hate and recruitment for hate groups on college campuses.

Identity Evropa (154)
Identity Evropa, the brainchild of ex-Marine, Nathan Damigo, came to fruition in March 2016. With close ties to Richard Spencer, the group aims to hide its white supremacist ideologies behind a pseudo-intellectualized facade. From their “fashy haircuts” and pressed khakis to the group’s sleek website, aesthetics are everything. This motive is certainly not lost on Identity Evropa’s fliering endeavours, arguably their most notable activity.
