Flyers and social media posts about an alleged Neo-Nazi on the University of Colorado (CU) Boulder campus have been circulating from anti-fascist watch groups in the front range and Colorado Springs. Nathan Ellis is a sophomore at the university.

The flyers started being seen on Oct. 21 and claimed Ellis is affiliated with multiple white nationalists groups, including Patriot Front. On Thursday evening Oct. 24, the same week the flyers started to crop up, Ellis was assaulted after a Turning Point USA meeting.

For more on this story, we spoke to Jessica Sachs and Satori Griffith, reporters for the CU Independent. They co-authored a piece titled, “CU Boulder Turning Point secretary accused of ties to white nationalist organizations.”
