Reviews

'Timely, insightful and clearly written, this book is an essential read for anyone interested in the many ways that white nationalists deploy popular culture for expression of their racist ideas and fantasies. King and Leonard brilliantly show and discuss the interface and connections between white nationalist discourse and the mainstream.' Katharine Tyler, University of Exeter, UK 'Beyond Hate: White Power and Popular Culture is an original and innovative study that makes an important contribution to work on the extreme right, white supremacism and hate groups. It adds a new dimension to existing work by examining such movements, not only in relation to mainstream politics and ideology, but in relation to mainstream popular culture (often the target of their hatred), their consumption of and engagement with it, as well as their own cultural production. Thus, beyond work on hate and extremism, this book also makes an important contribution to and will appeal to scholars working in sociology of race and ethnicity, cultural studies and media studies.' Aaron Winter, University of Abertay Dundee, UK
