Date: 1/1/1991Call Number: V 130Format: VHSProducers: John Brown Anti-Klan Committee, George LippmanCollection: Videos in many formats – both camera originals as well as reference materials
This brief history of the most notorious hate groups in the U.S. not only provides some interesting background on the Ku Klux Klan and its origins as a tool for rolling back the African-Americans' gains of the reconstruction period but also portrays its widespread activities today and its links with Nazi and nativist skinheads. Examines the violence being used by these hate groups in the 1990's to further racism, anti-semitism, gay-bashing, nativism and pushing back the womens movement. Footage of interviews with David Duke and Tom Metzger reveals their efforts to repackage hate within the bosom of so-called "All American Values." Examines the phenomenon of "white" rock'n roll and the right-wing media establishment to mobilize whites against blacks, gays, foreigners and Jews. Quickly examines the relationships between the FBI and the Klan. Also shows that many skinheads condemn the fascist skinhead movement.

Date: 10/20/1995Call Number: JG/ 096AFormat: Cass AProducers: Judy GerberProgram: A Defiant HeartCollection: Programs produced by Judy Gerber and Laurie Simms
Focus on Racism. Interview with Judy Siff and Bill Crossman of the Prairie Fire Organizing Committee on their class 'Culture Clash' on the history of white supremacy and its impact on U.S. history. At the occasion of the Million Man March, racism is on the public agenda for the first time in many years. Siff and Crossman note how 1995 has been a remarkable year for
publicity of racism, particularly the Mumia Abu Jamal and Susan Smith cases. They believe that the problem of race in the U.S. transcends racism to root inequality through institutions, including a very central role of the police
and judicial system in promoting white supremacy. They argue that the white perception of reality needs to change, that a new common consciousness must be forged. They note how racism targets many different groups in the U.S., not just Blacks, and how mainstream white society usually turns a blind eye.

Focus on Racism continued. Interview with Judy Siff and Bill Crossman of the Prairie Fire Organizing Committee on their class 'Culture Clash' on the history of white supremacy and its impact on U.S. history. Siff and Crossman
talk about the book 'The Myth of the White Proletariat' that challenges deep myths of White America. According to the book, popular misconceptions regarding race and racism in the U.S. stem historically from the national foundation, particularly notions about who the early settlers were, what the existing native population was like, and who actually benefited from the system of slavery. Siff and Crossman argue that this nation was an empire from the start, seizing and subjugating nations, and that the nation as a whole benefited from slavery. They believe that all white people no matter what social class, has benefited from white supremacy.
