Bevara Sverige Svenskt

Bevara Sverige Svenskt (BSS) was a Swedish political movement founded by persons with far right-wing backgrounds. The stated objective was to initiate a debate in order to reduce mass immigration from non-European countries. Founded in 1979, BSS was at first involved in abortive election co-operation with Sverigepartiet. In 1986 it joined with populist Framstegspartiet, which later evolved into Sverigedemokraterna.
Although its membership was always quite small, BSS represented the first organized attempt to reduce immigration and as a result received massive media attention. The rank and file membership of BSS consisted mainly of young skinheads. Claiming not to be racists, their often aggressive sticker campaigns arguably spoke a different language with slogans such as "Låt inte din dotter bli en negerleksak" (Don't let your daughter become a nigger toy) and "Negrer hotar sina offer" (Negros threaten their victims).
