Antisemitic fliers that appear to link Jewish people with the anti-vaccine movement were discovered at several elementary and middle schools in Santa Monica on Thursday morning, the latest in a spate of similar incidents across Los Angeles County, authorities said. AdvertisementSanta Monica-Malibu Unified and the city of Santa Monica released a joint statement condemning the act. “Santa Monica rejects bigotry of any kind and antisemitic rhetoric, intolerance, harassment and violence have no place in our schools or in our community,” the statement said. Fliers were found at Edison Language Academy, Will Rogers Learning Community, and McKinley, Roosevelt and Grant elementary schools, as well as John Adams and Lincoln middle schools, according to school officials. Lt. Rudy Flores, spokesperson for the Santa Monica Police Department, said police were dispatched to the respective schools to collect information.
