(Intro) "Howard Simon has been leading chapters of the American Civil Liberties Union longer than anyone else, a career that has spanned 43 years and countless controversies. He has helped the Ku Klux Klan rally at a state capitol and defended the right of a Florida pastor to burn a Quran, an affront that led to a deadly riot halfway around the world. And in the late 1970s, he recalls appearing in just about “every synagogue in Michigan,” where he was then based, to explain why the A.C.L.U. was defending a planned neo-Nazi march in Skokie, in neighboring Illinois."

(Intro) "We decode the symbols of hate that white supremacists, Nazis and alt-right groups display at their marches, including the violent gathering in Charlottesville, Va."

(Abstract) "The article discusses the growth of white supremacist movement in the U.S., citing significance of the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. It states a coalition between white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and Confederate apologists, which supposedly led to the Charlottesville rally, and mentions that their views were circulated on the Internet. It notes significance of people like Richard Spencer, who coined the term "alt-right," among the supremacists."

(Abstract) "While Supremacist groups in the United Stales share certain common elements and characteristics. In addition to a view of racial hierarchy, there is usually some form of antisemitism, dualism, apocalypticism, a reliance on conspiracy theories, a masculinist perspective, and antipathy towards gays and lesbians. They also share some common elements with all social movements. At the same time, there are distinctive differences among White Supremacist groups. There are several ways to illustrate these differences. In order to better explain how these groups operate in the public sphere, we separate them into the categories of political, religious, and youth cultural (racist skinhead, racist gangs, etc.) This typology, proposed by Vysotsky (2004), focuses on how these groups recruit and mobilize supporters around specific ideologies or cultural frames. We also look at several complexities and controversies in the study of White Supremacist organizations."

(Abstract) "The article discusses academic scholarship on what is referred to as the alt-right movement represented by white supremacists such as Richard B. Spencer during the early 21st century, particularly following the 2016 election of U.S. presidential candidate Donald J. Trump."

(Abstract) "The article discusses the growing presence of trolls, people who victimize people online, in the Internet. Topics discussed include troll actions which include pranks, harassment or threats, and doxxing, the tetrad personality profile of trolls which consists of psychopathy, Machiavellianism, sadism, and narcissism, and trolling as the primary tool of the reactionary movement alt-right."

(Intro) "This document is an archived copy of an older ADL report and may not reflect the most current facts or developments related to its subject matter.Public Enemy Number 1 (PENI) is an unusual hybrid of a racist skinhead gang, street gang and prison gang. Since the early 2000s, the group has grown considerably, particularly in California, where it originated, and has also spread to nearby states. PENI's increasing strength stems to a large degree from its ability to position itself as a white power criminal organization capable of operating both on the streets and in the prison yards as foot soldiers for older, more established white supremacist prison gangs, such as the Aryan Brotherhood."

(Intro) "The ICRC recognizes that while legislators and opponents of hate crimes share a concern about the seriousness and prevalence of hate crimes, there is an ongoing debate about the proper response. Advocates of hate crime legislation contend that it is appropriate because it is consistent with an already existing national policy that prohibits bias­ motivated actions against protected classes. Further, advocates contend that hate crimes harm entire communities, and leave whole groups of people feeling isolated, vulnerable and unprotected by the law. Those critical of hate crime legislation believe that these laws have a chilling effect on free speech and are laden with other constitutional concerns."
