A group of neo-Nazis are planning a book burning in Minneapolis on Saturday.
MINNEAPOLIS -- A neo-Nazi group has scheduled a book burning event for this weekend in Minneapolis.
This group is called the National Socialist Movement. It's based out of Minneapolis and well-known across the country as a neo-Nazi organization that is pro-white and anti-Semitic.
They draw attention and protest, and not all of it is peaceful.
In Austin, Texas last November, members of the group rallied against illegal immigrants from Mexico. A similar rally in Lansing, Mich. last April brought out 500 police officers.
This weekend, its website announces the Great Minnesota Book Burning, to take place Saturday in Minneapolis. The website even includes pictures of Nazi book burnings during the 1930s.
The announcement invites all known white patriots who are encouraged to bring degenerate books suitable for throwing into the fire.
One of the books on the list is the Jewish book of laws called the Talmud.
This is not a moment where we can just pass over it or turn around and ignore it,” Rabbi Marcia Zimmerman said. “It really needs to be spoken out against, because it really cuts to basic freedoms.”
The book burning announcement does not include a time or a location. Even the National Socialist Movement's phone number only contains a recruitment message.
The National Socialist Movement is billing this as an historic event. Minneapolis police are aware of the planned book burning, but are not disclosing how they plan to respond to it.
