This book presents ten alarmingly candid interviews by some of the most prominent members of what co-editors Carol M. Swain and Russ Nieli warn is a growing White Nationalist movement. The ten people interviewed in this volume make statements that are sure to shock, amuse, challenge, and provoke the typical reader. Their remarks are of particular interest, Swain and Nieli believe, for understanding how the many race-conscious whites who lie outside the integrationist consensus on racial issues in America view developments that have taken place in the United States since the Civil Rights movement. If current trends continue, the authors predict, these ideas will become more common, especially as whites become a diminishing portion of the US population. They claim that the claims of white nationalists need to be aired in open, public forums, where they can be vigorously challenged and subjected to refutation.
‘… a fresh attempt to examine the American extreme right. the approach is distinctive in that it is not only concerned with groupings that are anti-Semitic, hostile to African Americans or both … through extensive interviews with figures ranging from former Ku Klux Klan leader and ex-Louisiana state legislator David Duke to New York university professor Michael Levin, the editors explore the different ways in which champions of ‘white rights’ argue their case … in its extended discussion of racism in America and the interviews that follow, they have produced a valuable resource.’
