Overview

• New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella has filed a civil rights lawsuit against neo-Nazi group NSC-131 and its leader, Christopher Hood, accusing them of disrupting a drag story hour at an LGBTQ-owned coffee shop in Concord.
• The group is accused of violating the state’s anti-discrimination laws by trying to stop the event through acts of intimidation, including shouting, raising their right arms in unison and banging on the coffee shop’s windows.
• If Hood and the 19 unnamed men are found to have violated the state’s anti-discrimination law, they can face a $10,000 penalty.
• This is the second complaint against the group by the New Hampshire Attorney General, following a similar complaint that was dismissed earlier this year.
• Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell’s office also filed a complaint against Hood and the neo-Nazi group last week, accusing them of violating the state’s civil rights laws in a series of incidents between July 2022 and October 2023.
