Police said they are investigating who placed the 'concerning' flyers in residents' front yards.
However, Whit Whitaker, the president of the Lexington-Fayette Chapter of the NAACP, said people should be concerned.
“The seed’s been planted. You don’t know who else has saw that, and just because this was an indirect action, it could lead to direct action violence or violent activities,” Whitaker said. Whitaker said people should report any incident like this to authorities but should also take other steps if they wish to enact change.
“You see something, say something, do something - mobilization,” said Whitaker. “You have a neighborhood association. If you are truly offended, then you mobilize your neighborhood association and say, ‘This is unacceptable; we need to stay vigilant.’”Police said they have received reports of similar flyers being found in Paris, Kentucky, and they are looking into it.
