Editor’s Note: According to a source, Cooper has moved/been evicted from his apartment that was originally listed in this article.
On Tuesday, March 21st, anti-racists exposed white nationalist leader Casey Jordan Cooper in Atlanta, Georgia. As documented on the Atlanta Antifascists website, Cooper has claimed responsibility for posting white power propaganda on Atlanta campuses, helped with recent far-Right gatherings, and harassed people who he views as enemies. Cooper was also part of a white nationalist group recorded jeering at a Stone Mountain Park visitor with sexist and antisemitic remarks in September 2016. With his @BigButternutJoe Twitter account, Cooper published a clear death threat to a local Black activist earlier in July.

Cooper currently studies at Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School, where a majority of the students are people of color.

We believe that Casey Cooper should not be allowed to organize white supremacists and target others unopposed. Cooper rapidly rose to prominence in Atlanta white nationalist circles last year. We hope that exposing his threats, organizing efforts, and propaganda will limit his ability to do harm.

On Tuesday, we mailed over seventy fliers to Cooper’s neighbors at the 141 Grape Street and other nearby apartments, warning them of their neighbor’s white power agitation. Later, at night, we placed a couple dozen posters near Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School, warning students of what their classmate does in his free time.
