Recommendation

White supremacy radicalizes young people – especially white males – using extreme methods and ideologies that go well beyond politically conservative thought. By shining a light on far-right extremists and their violent ideas, author Talia Lavin hopes to impede these radical groups’ underground organizing. Lavin explains their beliefs and their networks, details the hate they manufacture and stoke, and describes the consequences of their activities for a multicultural, diverse society.

Take-Aways

  • Far-right forums and media outlets spread racism, misogyny and anti-Semitism.
  • White supremacy is rehashing ancient hatred of Jewish people.
  • White supremacists use social media to promote racial conflict.
