Encyclopedia of Right-Wing Extremism In Modern American History


Product Description
Right-wing extremism in America has had an established presence from the 1930s through the present day. The election of America's first African-American president and the resuscitation of "big government" policymaking have stimulated a reaction from, and a reemergence of, right-wing extremists, Neo-Nazis, racist skinheads, and white supremacists. Unfortunately, it seems Americans are still living in an age of extremism.
The Encyclopedia of Right-Wing Extremism in Modern American History provides useful, authoritative information about these groups and their histories, covering conservative extremism from the 1930s onward, such as white supremacist groups and neo-Nazis, Christian Identity and other right-wing religious movements, and anti-American government extremists. An introductory overview, insightful conclusion chapter, and useful, up-to-date bibliography are also included.
</p>Encyclopedia of Right-Wing Extremism In Modern American History Review
I curse the day I stumbled upon this waste of paper while going through the shelves of my local library. Whoever wrote this was either paid to spread filthy leftist propaganda or has no knowledge or understanding of history except that which was hammered into his brain by whatever marxist alma mater brainwashing machine he came out of.Ku Klux Clan is a right-wing group? Mr. Atkins, the Ku Klux Clan was created by the Democratic Party. Historian Eric Foner wrote in 1898, "In effect, the Klan was a military force serving the interests of the Democratic party, the planter class, and all those who desired restoration of white supremacy. Its purposes were political, but political in the broadest sense, for it sought to affect power relations, both public and private, throughout Southern society. It aimed to reverse the interlocking changes sweeping over the South during Reconstruction: to destroy the Republican party's infrastructure, undermine the Reconstruction state, reestablish control of the black labor force, and restore racial subordination in every aspect of Southern life."
The Democratic Party has a long track record of racism and extremism. The Klan was founded by Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Democrat. Woodrow Wilson (a Democrat) segregated Federal Buildings and jobs. The Democrat Party instituted the Jim Crow Laws. It instituted "separate but equal". George Wallace (a Democrat) said "Segregation Forever". Orval Faubus (a Democrat) wanted the AK National Guard to enforce segregation. Bull Connor (a member of the Democrat National Committee) hosed the marchers in Birmingham. Democrats called General Colin Powell a "house n***er", and Condoleeza Rice an "Aunt Jemima", and more recently, they called many African-Americans who dared to criticize Obama despicable, racist names. The man who sent the 101st Airborne to integrate the schools was Dwight Eisenhower, a Republican. Republicans made up the majority that passed the Nineteenth Amendment and the 1964 Civil Rights Act, over the filibuster of Democrats (William Fulbright, Al Gore Sr., and Grand Kleagle Byrd, among others).
I'm not saying there aren't any extremists on the right; there are extremists in all walks of life. But it's certainly not the norm like this book will have you believe. The Westboro Baptist Church is the perfect example, and you know what? They're shunned and despised like the freaks they are by the vast majority of conservatives. If you really care about exposing rabid, widespread extremism, look left. As a Rand-loving libertarian I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place most days, but I value integrity and fairness, and do my best to exercise them. Curiosity has over the course of the years brought me to both liberal and conservative events, and the only extremism and hatred I've seen are coming from the left, especially as of late.
The absurdity of this book can only be matched by its outrageous price. It's a joke in every respect.
