Arrests during Democratic convention protests near the Israeli consulate in Chicago are part of a growing antisemitic wave in the U.S., according to counter-hate groups that say religious hatred goes hand in hand with white supremacist movements.
Arrests during Democratic convention protests near the Israeli consulate in Chicago are part of a growing antisemitic wave in the U.S., according to counter-hate groups.Chicago has had more than a few summers of hate. A Ku Klux Klan and American Nazi rally in Marquette Park almost 60-years ago is just one reminder of a legacy that lives on to this day.
The ADL has charted a spike in anti-Jewish leafleting in metro Chicago, Indiana and Wisconsin; described as precursors to possible violent next steps. Much of it is documented in an ADL report out Monday: Summer of Hate: White Supremacist Activity from Memorial Day to Labor Day. It charts 64 white supremacist events across 25 states between late May and early September.
Against that background is a U.S. indictment of two accused white supremacists in their mid-30s, accused of soliciting hate crimes and the murder of federal officials. The suspects are a man in California and woman from Boise, Idaho.
