1996 | 368 Pages | ISBN: 0140234497 | PDF | 29 MB
A Journey Inside The American White Racist Movement Recent domestic terrorist attacks have turned a new spotlight on the secret world and chilling ideology of the American radical right, but swastika armbands and racial slogans have been making news for decades. Who are these people so full of venom? Where do their fears come from? Are they dangerous, pathetic, or both? Raphael S. Ezekiel, who grew up Jewish in segregated East Texas, takes you to a Klan rally in Georgia and an Aryan Nations Congress in northern Idaho. In extensive interviews you'll hear from three national white militant leaders, including Tom Metzger, and members of a Detroit neo-Nazi cell. In this powerfully enlightening book, Ezekiel sweeps aside the fear and mystery to reveal real individuals: savvy leaders hungry for power at any cost, and young people with empty lives, starved for potency and meaning.

"Ezekiel's pointed volume is the best available modern source for grasping the psychological foundations of the Radical Right."-Thomas F Pettigrew, Univ. of Cal., Santa Cruz.
