Hate literature found on WWU campus among recent similar incidents in Bellingham

Western Washington University Police are investigating reports of hate literature on campus and residents of at least one Bellingham neighborhood have reported seeing leaflets that promote racist views.

“A number of stickers/posters of the white supremacist group Patriot Front were found early (Friday) affixed to light poles across Western’s main campus in Bellingham,” WWU spokesman Paul Cocke said in an email.

He said a University Police officer found the posters on light poles in Red Square, in front of Wilson Library, in front of the Communications Building, in Haskell Square and at other locations.
