On Sunday, July 26, IREHR’s Leonard Zeskind did a workshop on the white nationalist movement for the about 30 activists from the Anti-Racist Collective (ARC) of the St. Louis Justice Institute. This group of white people had been involved in building solidarity for the struggles in the Ferguson area, had opposed an Aryan Nations rally last spring, and many other worthwhile efforts. Zeskind talked about the racist and anti-Semitic character of the white nationalist movement, and how it differs from other racist movements.
