About this title

Synopsis

When Hate Groups March Down Main Street is a comprehensive, authoritative resource guide for communities, organizations, and individuals who are concerned and intimidated by the resurgence of neo-Nazi and extreme right-wing groups in the United States. Communities have often been caught flat-footed when confronting neo-Nazi and far right-wing extremists. This book examines how hate groups act and what motivates them and discusses, using case studies and community resources, how to equip communities to successfully respond to these incursions.
