Product Description
Over the past ten years, a new white nationalist movement has gained strength in America, bringing with it the potential to disrupt already fragile race relations. Eschewing violence, this movement seeks to expand its influence mainly through argument and persuasion directed at its target audience of white Americans aggrieved over racial double standards, race-based affirmative action policies, high black-on-white crime rates, and liberal immigration policies. The movement has also been energized, Swain contends, by minority advocacy of multiculturalism. Due to its emphasis on group self-determination, multiculturalism has provided white nationalists with justification for advocating a parallel form of white solidarity. In addition, as Swain illustrates, technological advances such as the Internet have made it easier than ever before for white nationalists to reach a more mainstream audience. Swain's study is intended as a wake-up call to all Americans who cherish the Civil Rights Era vision of an integrated America, a common humanity, and equality before God and the law.

The Author advocates censorship

The author is a tax-supported "scholarship student" (by her admission), who dutifully says what such people are paid to say. She actually advocates censorship of the Internet, (when it doesn't conform to her views or the views of the think-tanks with which she's affiliated), something that made me so angry I contacted her. The book, quite frankly, made me sorry for my family's positive sense of "civil rights." To have given this woman "a voice," only to have her use it to condemn and silence populations unlike herself, and to censor the Internet. That was so amazing. And with such little sensitivity to how many poor whites, in the country so many more generations, are locked out of things like college, just so she can go on the tax dollar.

A White Nationalist's review

Well, the new census just came out and yet again tells us that Europe is dying, soon death rates will exceed the birth rates in places where they haven't already begun this trend.
Italian women have an average of one baby and Germany's maternity wards sit empty more often than not. Native Irish are projected to be a minority in their own country no later than 2050. Racial strife and violence has already rocked England, due to out of control multiculturalism.
This disturbing trend has appeared here in America as well, with Whites consistently being outbred by foreigners, not to mention the lax border control policies our government has (or has not) implemented.
The funny thing is that a lot of Whites seem completely unconcerned about the future of their children and grandchildren.
Europe is undoubtedly a White person's birthright, and should be for Whites only, just as Asia and Africa is for Asians and blacks. Here in America, where this demographic suicide is also occuring, we will become a third world country within the next 50 years. Balkanization will happen and racial violence (South Africa for example) will be much more common.
Executions of Whites and interracial rapes will become more common as we plunge into minority status- they say 50% of the population by 2050, and what next? How low can we go?
Would Whites be alarmed when the census comes out with a 5% projection? Where does the annihilation of our people end?
The author of this book would no doubt be shocked by the disappearance of a beautiful butterfly, sea lions or the St. Bernard dog but could not care in the least to see White children continue to exist and thrive in a safe first world country.

A good study on White Racialism in the United States and the affects of a "multi-racial" society on whites.
All too often non-whites flaunt their racial pride, and they have organizations to turn to. But where do whites turn? All too often the only place they can turn to are radical organizations, because the only non-racist organization for whites out there that i know of is the EAIF.org (European/American issues Forum). If anything we need more non-racist websites for whites that don't accuse whites of bigotry the second they enter the site. Not the best book in the world, but worth a glance.

As an account of what is out there and how it is working among the world of white racists, Swain's work is almost encyclopedic. I found that it was frequently quite interestingly focused on the way in which white nationalists have appropriated the style of thinking common to postmodernism. An appeal to pity for suffering white kids, an appeal for special consideration under the law to remedy the suffering of Christian normals at the hands of a liberal elite.
What could be more chilling than that?

A must read for anyone concerned about race in America

Carol Swain's book is a wonderfully thorough and in depth look at current race relations in America. Although some of the content is disturbing, she argues that we should not be silent on the issue of race, but rather discuss what is often uncomfortable. The most persuasive part of the book is her section on policy suggestions as she brings unique and new ideas to light. Even if you think that these issues do not effect you, it is a must read as silence and lack of information fuels the white nationalists' discourse and overall pursuasiveness.
