About This Book
The work traces the revival of a secret white-supremacist fraternal order, contrasting its postwar origins with an early-twentieth-century reorganization and arguing that the modern incarnation operates largely as a profit-driven enterprise. It details leadership, ceremonies, recruitment methods, oaths, dues and regalia, and describes publicity strategies and legal entanglements. The author examines the movement's published rhetoric and policies toward Jews, Catholics, Freemasons, Black people and women, and compiles reported abuses and violent incidents attributed to the order. Court and police records and contemporary publicity material are cited to support allegations of fraudulent methods and member exploitation.
