White Supremacist Group Stickers Found Along Metairie Road in New Orleans

Stickers advertising the white supremacist group Identity Evropa have been found along Metairie Rd.

Identity Evropa, also known as the American Identity Movement, is a white supremacist and neo-Nazi group that was established in early 2016. They are identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group.

According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), hate groups like Identity Evropa have increased recruiting tactics like stickering and leafleting since 2018. Last year, the group participated in a “bannering” of the Andrew Jackson statue in Jackson Square. The ADL has labeled them as one of the most active hate groups in Louisiana.

The stickers were found by members of The Creole Alliance, a local film maker’s group. Their mission is to “make content for change” in Louisiana and in the U.S. According to the Alliance, the stickers span from at least the Causeway to Labarre along Metairie Rd. This stretch includes popular spots such as the new Ruby Slipper Cafe and Rock N Sake.
