Longtime White Supremacist Opens Fire at DC Holocaust Museum; Shooting is Third in as Many Months Linked to White Nationalist G

by via Democracy Now
Thursday, June 11, 2009 :Longtime white supremacist James W. von Brunn opened fire at Washington, DC's Holocaust Memorial Museum on Wednesday, killing a security guard and injuring another. It was the third recent shooting involving a gunman with ties to the white nationalist movement, following last month's slaying of abortion provider Dr. George Tiller and the shooting of three police officers in Philadelphia in April. We speak with one of the nation's leading researchers on right-wing hate groups, Leonard Zeskind, author of Blood and Politics: The History of the White Nationalist Movement from the Margins to the Mainstream. Zeskind has been closely monitoring white nationalist and anti-Semitic groups for over thirty years.
Guest:

He is the founder of the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights in Kansas City, Missouri, and has studied far-right, racist and neo-Nazi groups for more than three decades.
