that as the obama years of the obama presidency are ceding and getting breathing new life into a new era of our our civil rights movement, into our anti-racist movement, there is always been a white supremacist in this country. right. the anti-racist movement is a foil, not just to a status quo, but also to a movement of people who want things to remain way. and think that. so what we see and what i think about in this book is this idea of the response and the reaction, the rise of of people, of movements who would play to these insecurities, these anxieties, and how that playing to it has a certain set of outcomes. right what we know, and i think it's important to draw a distinction right there when we talk about supremacism, we're not talking about the 55% of white americans. right. we're talking the we're talking the movement of people who are avowed or avowedly racist, who are eager to exploit those who are slaying in a wait and hoping to proselytize, are excited and happy about the idea of many white americans googling phil black on white crime? or are immigrants bad or, you kno
