Leonard Zeskiad is research director of the Center for Democratic Renewal in Atlan? ta. He told a meeting of the Kootenai County Task Force on Human Relations recently : that the Aryan Nations is not winning many converts in the Northwest, but less flamboyant white supremacists are having success iq other parts of the country. Extremist groups are gaining followers in the South, among struggling farmers in the Midwest and among youth gangs in Chicago and \ryans are tany groups Southern California, Zeskind # j saia. Racist groups are eschewing violence and toning down their rhetoric to win converts, he said. "I think most of them have figured out that if you run around in front of an NBC camera with a machine gun, you're going to go to jail," he said. .v , ^ While the violent fringe of the racist movement attracts attention from law enforcement officials and the news media, "quiet" racists are even mqre_dangerousJbecause they tap a deep strain of racism in American life, Zeskind said. * They also try to convert people to their beliefs by first converting them to another cause, he said. ???I >Conc C(with pui I SUPER TITLES ACTION IRNAH "CIALS < vine^at^g 36" DIAGC I REAR PROJECTI TELEVISH I * 160-degree I angle Stereo broa I reception 181channe I compatible Ex I Tuning I 10-key WIRELESS REMOTE mm | AmttsubS 39 I model I W'""" VS-3M I " MO I 36" DIAGONAL Bam REAR-PROJECTION VB* 170 degree viewing angle I 139-channel. cable compatl jm H I We I Stereo/SAP broadcast recel tion 1 |yi99l If I Ksfl II i ^ w1nst0!
