PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Police are investigating after flyers promoting racist and antisemitic propaganda were found around Ridley Township, Delaware County.
The flyers were distributed in the Swarthmorewood neighborhood on Sunday, the Ridley Township Police Department shared on its Facebook page.
The phrase “Stand Up White Man” was printed on one of them, with a link to a website called “White Lives Matter.”
