In 1966, the Mississippi Ku Klux Klan assassinated Black civil rights leader Vernon Dahmer. A new book from former Boston Globe reporter Curtis Wilkie, ”When Evil Lived in Laurel: The White Knights and the Murder of Vernon Dahmer,” offers a rare look into the inner workings of white supremacist organizations, and how their violence was aided and abetted by politicians, law enforcement, and the media.

Law)nforcement was sympathetic because most were probably involved themselves…
I want to write the next book about psychology of white supremacist. Using my 11 years working in usaf with ts/sci. Any writer up for the task ?
Instead of espousing vague platitudes about systemic racism, it would have actually been helpful if someone took the time to explain why economic grievances should never lead to ethnic or racial scapegoating.
Economic anxiety is just one of the consequences of their racism, sheer ignorance and hatred are the main drivers of their filthy ideologies.

Have a lynching party for their whole community on Saturday night and then go to church on Sunday morning.
These racist are angry at the people (Black folk)who by all metrics are at the bottom of the totem pole in the U.S. and not at the people who are at the top and running the country. Truly amazing. This is F-up DNA.
These 2 idiots call other people conspiracy nuts yet they see the klan a minuscule band of high school dropouts and gas station attendants who everyone goes out of their way to denounce as hiding behind every bush ready to pounce at any moment. Meanwhile they completely ignore rampant crime in black communities which have killed 3 times as many blacks in a year than the klan killed in its entire history. According to those 2 notorious racists Eric Holder and Barack Obama.
Assassination? not
sounds like the kkk in the usa acted as the usa militery does and always had done in taking over the country and dealing with the rest of the world.
I once attended a klan rally not as a member but because I was genuinely curious about why everyone was making a big deal out of them. I lived in Brooklyn at the time & couldn’t find a single klansman in the entire city of 8 million people. When I finally located a klan chapter in Delaware I went to a rally what I found was shocking. This minuscule band of gas station attendants & high school dropouts attracted a mob of crazed leftists that outnumbered them at least 10 to 1. They were hell bent on assaulting them . The police had all they could handle to prevent a riot. The klan is a trivial organization whose only function I could see was as a fund raising tool for the southern poverty law center. The last time the klan was a significant factor in American life was when 50,000 of them marched up 5th ave to attend the democrat convention where many of them were delegates. This was in New York City not Selma Alabama. Being a white supremacist myself why should I object to the democrat racism. I don’t believe white people are superior in every respect. I don’t believe that it’s an accident that 72% of the NFL players are black or that there are hardly any white boxing champions. In ways that matter in a modern technological society white peoples are better. White Americans have won over 300 Nobel prizes concentrated in the hard sciences. Latin America 6 prizes 4 in the humanities. Africa none. This is no accident either. Democrats have always been racist but now their racism is far worse they used to be racist against others now it has become a nihilist self loathing. On some level non whites actually realize whites are better. Spike Lee and Barrack Obama 2 African Americans who have become rich & famous denigrating whites soon as they hustled up some money bought multi million $ homes in the most Lilly white rich enclave I can think of Martha’s Vineyard over 90% white. Why isn’t Chris Hedges organizing a rescue mission the local klan chapter could lynch them at any time.
Native American Retired Psychologist… Got a lot of thoughts. One is that we're not really educated about the true history of any race, assimilation or migration affects. Scientifically we know why it's just have less pigmentation caused in large from geographics. A lot of people don't know that immigration in the US was very class-based. A rich Person regardless of race was different. The Irish were despised as a lower class. Hundreds of tiny things make up our current culture in the U.S. and many aspects are never looked into by most people in general. Very interesting and well done. And Much Love 💕 to all.
Are you sure that those white oppressors are working class? Many involved in the Citizens Councils, held political positions, owned big businesses and were professionals. These ruling class swine oppressed workers regardless of race.
