| Summary |
"American Swastika leads readers through hidden enclaves of hate in America, exploring how white supremacy movements thrive nationwide, even as the country voices the rhetoric of racial equality. Drawing on more than a decade of research and interviews, Pete Simi and Robert Futrell explain the differences between various hate groups, then show readers how white supremacy groups cultivate their membership and core values through Aryan homes, parties, rituals, music festivals, and online propaganda. Powerful case studies, first-person accounts, and interviews with white supremacists show how white power groups sustain themselves and mature. The authors look toward how we can work to prevent future violence."--P. [iv] of cover. |
