Maddow: Racism Is 'A Persistent Infection' In White American Culture | Rachel Maddow |
Rachel Maddow looks at the deadly racist violence in Charlottesville, Virginia in the context of other instances of white supremacist violence in the modern era, as well as what makes the weekend's tragic events unique.
It means that nazism was not an infection in White American culture in 1984 nor is it in 2017.

Nazism is the ideology and practice of the Nazis, especially the policy of racist nationalism, national expansion, and state control of the economy and it was here in 1984 and it is alive today.
According to The New York Times in 1984: “NEO-NAZIS SHARED GAINS WITH OTHERS, U.S. SAYS.
Money said to have been stolen in bank and armored-car robberies by the NEO-NAZI group the order was given to leaders of white-supremacist organizations around the country to further their work.
That doesn't make it an infection. What Rachel said is no different than if she had said Chicago murders were an infection in Black American culture.

But it is, an infection in Black American culture and she would have told the TRUTH.
Steve,, if you are not out raged by the neo-Nazis giving nazi salutes to hitler and the other white supremacy groups chanting hate and the lives lost in this demonstration, then you have not been paying attention.
I haven't said what I think about nazism. I posted the Vice News documentary that showed these people in Charlottesville and you never commented.
