Members of Patriot Front are required to post a certain number of racist flyers per month. Leaders of Patriot Front also demand that members travel up to 100 miles from their homes to post that propaganda. Leaked private chats have revealed that members of Patriot Front are required to purchase stickers, flyer templates and other promotional materials at a premium from the group鈥檚 leaders, which has led some members to argue听.听

How to use this map
The two filters by which to view the data are Group Name听补苍诲 Flyer Type.
Group Name鈥
- Sorting the map byGroup Name听breaks down the number of flyering incidents according to the hate groups carrying out this activity.听Patriot Front听鈥 the group that posted the most propaganda in 2019, 2020 and 2021鈥 and the New Jersey European Heritage Association 鈥 a group whose flyering activity increased substantially across 2020 and 2021 鈥 both fall under the听White Nationalist
- The next distinction under Group Name,听Ku Klux Klan, is typically listed as an ideology by the 人兽性交, with individual hate groups that fit under this broader term. However, given the Klan鈥檚 comparably narrow and rigid ideology and the similarity between Klan group names, the Ku Klux Klan is listed as a group rather than an ideology on this map.
- The category labeled 鈥淥ther鈥 contains flyers from groups such as听The Daily Stormer,听The David Horowitz Freedom Center, and 鈥淚t鈥檚 okay to be white,鈥 which is not a group name but rather the content of a flyer that has been popularized on the imageboard, 4chan. 鈥淥ther鈥 now also contains all of the flyering incidents carried out by the American Identity Movement, a white nationalist group previously known as Identity Evropa. Since disbanding in November 2020, this group has stopped posting hateful propaganda.
Flyer Type鈥
- 罢丑别听Flyer Type听view is straightforward, displaying flyers posted on college campuses separated out from those posted in public, non-campus, areas.
- Throughout 2021, some hate groups started using stencils and spray paint, as well as stickers to spread their hateful rhetoric. Both of these types of propaganda are still categorized as flyers and filtered by their location, public versus campus.
- Banners are different from flyers in their size and the number of hate group members it requires to deploy.
Useful tips鈥

- Hovering above the individual points will display more information about location and type of flyer.
- Clicking on an individual state provides a chronological summary of that state鈥檚 flyering data at the bottom of the map. Clicking 鈥淰iew National鈥 on the left side of the graph returns the display to all flyering data in the United States.
- The time scale at the top of the map can be used to change the time period for which flyering data is displayed.
