During the 2016 election, a new term entered the American political lexicon: the "alt-right," short for "alternative right." Despite the innocuous name, the alt-right is a white-nationalist movement. Yet it differs from earlier racist groups: it is youthful and tech-savvy, obsessed with provocation and trolling, amorphous, predominantly online, and mostly anonymous. And it was energized by Donald Trump's presidential campaign. In Making Sense of the...

This groundbreaking first book recovers the daily workers who upheld the system of segregation and Jim Crow for so long--white women. Every day in rural communities, in university towns, and in New South cities,...

The Ku Klux Klan has peaked three times in American history: after the Civil War, around the 1960s Civil Rights Movement, and in the 1920s, when the Klan spread farthest and fastest.

After the election of Donald J. Trump, Darby went looking for the women of the so-called 'alt-right' -- really just white nationalism with a new label. The mainstream media depicted the alt-right as a bastion of angry white men, but was it? Why would women join a movement espousing racism and anti-feminism? And what did their activism reveal about America's past, present, and future? Corinna Olsen, Ayla Stewart, and Lana Lokteff, each born in 1979,...
