For the second time in six months controversial flyers have been found on the Southern Methodist University campus.
The flyer includes a photo of a Caucasian family and a message stating, “You will not replace us.” One SMU student who saw the flyers says she went directly to the SMU Student Senate for action, while others were just finding out.
“It seems like every couple months it’s like we take a couple steps forward to only take a giant one back,” said SMU student Scott Scheetz. He says he wasn’t aware of the most recent Alt-Right flyers found on campus this week.
“It speaks very clearly that it’s a happy little white family,” Scheetz said.
The message is not sitting well with students, especially for the second time now in just months. Back in November, SMU officials say other racially-offensive flyers were posted.
“I think it’s a coward move. They do it maybe at nighttime or when others won’t be able to see them do it, and then we come and see the evidence of it when the sun’s up,” said SMU student Ronnie Wilson.
Sure enough when the sun came up, SMU student Gaby Gonzalez was one of the first to see the latest ones in Hyer Hall. She took her concerns to student senate, and collectively they came up with a message to whomever is circulating the flyers.
“We’re all a part of SMU, and we all come from these great different background and no one is trying to replace one another. We’re all a part of SMU,” she said.
