SALT LAKE CITY — The Beehive State had the seventh highest level of white supremacist propaganda incidents in the country during 2022, according to aUtah accounted for 222 of the 6,751 incidents reported across the country, which include the distribution of racist, antisemitic and anti-LGBTQ fliers, stickers, banners, graffiti, posters and laser projections. The numbers represent record highs for both the state and the U.S.
Patriot Front hung about 17 banners from freeway overpasses last year across Salt Lake County and in Lehi, Parleys Canyon, Ogden and Bountiful with links to the group's website and phrases like "Reclaim America" and "One nation, against invasion." White Lives Matter, which Anti-Defamation League characterizes as "a network of anonymous white supremacists," was responsible for a handful of other incidents and used more explicit white supremacy in its propaganda.

"I thought that the groups were kind of diminishing at this point; and if that's the case, it makes sense that we're going to see a lot more propaganda because they need to grow their numbers," he said. "There's a national movement for recruitment and growing these groups.
