The KKK knows it is dying, so they might get louder in the future. The Neo-Nazi groups know they aren't well liked either, so they might try to bring in the young and cause problems.

The thing is, supremacist groups often have violence in mind. It has been true of the KKK and the Neo-Nazis, and it is NBPP has encouraged violence as well. The louder and more influential they try to be, the reality of violence is imminent. One reason I don't have respect for any of them.

Well to be truthful those people hate whites that don't agree with their hate......they call their selves Chrisitans and are far from it. Guess they don't know who Jesus is

The KKK is dying because most of its membership is getting older and shrinking. On the other hand, Neo-Nazis are trying to influence the youths. Neo-Nazis are violent, but what sets Neo-Nazis apart from the KKK is the Hitler "philosophy" and the fact that Neo-Nazis tend to be younger.

The KKK might go the way of the dinosaur. It is the Neo-Nazis groups, or anyone who could influence the young that one should worry about.

These types are just hateful in general. They don't understand that Jesus taught love, that we are all the same in God's eyes.

You can look at it as a time of great HOPE for ongoing progresss...socially and economically...
I liked this post and it made me stop and think. I get so hung up on the injustice of the Jim Crow attitudes, I sometimes fail to see "everything" that was changing during this time. Poor whites were also stigmatized and shunned by middle class whites during this time. My family was poorer than several other family members and poverty, even if it is a sort of a genteel poverty, was not acceptable by many. There defintely was a class system and still is so, too some extent.

To some extent? Class is the new race in the USA. Ethnicity is a sub issue of that
