DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion honoring the work of Leonard Ze
 skind\, who spent his life researching white nationalism and right wing h
 ate groups. This event coincides with the paperback release of Zeskind’s 
 book\, Blood and Politics: The History of the White Nationalist Movement 
 from the Margins to the Mainstream (2009)\, a sweeping history of white n
 ationalism’s four-decade rise in America\, and how it can help us underst
 and our present moment.\n\nLeonard Zeskind (1949–2025) spent four decades
  researching — often in-person — the white nationalist movement\, from th
 ink tanks and publications to armed militia groups and Holocaust deniers.
  A MacArthur Fellow\, he founded the Institute for Research and Education
  on Human Rights (IREHR) in 1983 to carry the work forward. Blood and Pol
 itics\, published in 2009\, remains the definitive account of the post–Civ
 il Rights era white nationalist movement. An essential study of American 
 racism\, Blood and Politics is thorough\, careful\, and troublingly presc
 ient.\n\nStudents who attend the event will receive a copy of Zeskind’s b
 ook.\n\nModerator Daniel HoSang\, American Studies\n\nPanelists\n\nDevin
