Alt-Right Group Handed Out Fliers In East Windsor In 2019: Report – East Windsor, NJ Patch

EAST WINDSOR TOWNSHIP, NJ A relatively new white supremacist group has been distributing propaganda in East Windsor and Hightstown, according to a new report by the Anti-Defamation League.

On April 7, the alt-right New Jersey European Heritage Association distributed fliers in Hightstown that read: "White Pride World Wide," "Reclaim Your Heritage," and "It's okay to be white."

On Dec. 7, the group distributed fliers with the QR code for New Jersey European Heritage Association and propaganda that read: "Take back your country" in East Windsor.

On Dec. 24, the group returned to Hightstown to distribute propaganda that read: "The New Jersey European Heritage Association wishes you a Merry white Christmas."

The New Jersey European Heritage Association was founded in 2018 to "save white European people from purported extinction," according to the Anti-Defamation League's profile of the group. They focus their efforts in central New Jersey.

Statewide, the number of incidents involving potential hate, extremism and anti-Semitism dropped from 2018 to 2019, according to the report.

In 2019, there were 216 incidents of hate, extremism and anti-Semitism in 112 towns in New Jersey, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

The figure for 2019 decreased from the 452 incidents reported in New Jersey during 2018. But the incidents were no less concerning, the report says.

The list follows a similar report published last year by the Southern Poverty Law Center, which said 18 hate organizations are based in towns throughout the Garden State, and the number is rising. Read more: Hate Groups In NJ: Map Shows Rising Total Of Racist Organizations
