White Nationalist Propaganda Distributed To Lemont Homes

LEMONT, IL — Several neighborhoods across Lemont found flyers promoting white nationalism in their driveways on Wednesday. The flyers, which are the same flyers that have also been distributed in communities like Oak Forest, Lombard and Beverly, are titled "No White Guilt," and share a list of websites that promote white supremacist viewpoints.

Residents reported the flyers in a community group on Facebook on Wednesday. In comments about the flyer, residents called it "disgusting" and many had called the Lemont Police Department.

Flyers were reportedly distributed in Covington Knolls, the Timberline subdivision, and various other streets in Lemont.

Patch reached out to the village of Lemont on Thursday, which said it was aware of this happening in other towns.

"As a village, we do not support this and we are aware that this is occurring in other towns. Our police department is attempting to identify them and stop further solicitation from this group," Mayor John Egofske told Patch.
