Wikipedia:

In 2001, approximately 1,100 Somalis began immigrating to Lewiston from Somalia and the greater Atlanta area.

In October 2002, then-Mayor Laurier T. Raymond, the son of immigrants himself, wrote an open letter addressed to leaders of the Somali community, predicting a negative impact on the city's social services and requesting that Somali leaders discourage further Somali relocation to Lewiston. The letter was full of factual errors (for example, it claimed that 50% of the City's welfare budget was being directed to the Somali newcomers which was untrue and ignored the fact that welfare is a Federal rather than a city program). Even the City Manager disagreed with the "facts" listed in the letter. The letter angered many, prompted many community leaders and residents to speak out against the mayor, drawing national attention. Demonstrations were held in Lewiston, both by those who supported the Somalis' presence and those who opposed it.
