Last
weekend the streets of Charlottesville become flooded with a collection of neo-Nazis,
fascists, and white supremacists, and it’s important to note that this rally
brought together and array of both old and new-school groups including well
know organizations like the KKK to lesser known and newer ones such as Vanguard
America and Identity Evropa. Joining me
today to talk all about the rally in Charlottesville, the rise of the latest
white identity politics movement known as the "alt-right" and its
similarities and differences from other illiberal ideologies is George Hawley who is a University of
Alabama political science professor who studies white supremacists and
has a new book
coming out in September all about the "alt-right" movement's origins,
evolution, methods, and core belief in white identity politics titled Making Sense of the Alt-Right from Columbia University Press.
