Anatomy of Four Race Riots: Racial Conflict in Knoxville, Elaine (Arkansas), Tulsa, and Chicago, 1919-1921
This is a study of the terrible racial violence that erupted in four different communities of America during the post World War I years, violence that left hundreds dead or injured and a massive amount of destruction in its wake.

That the goal has been world conquest and the enthronement of a so-called master race is beside the point. Soviet Russia has shown how a people can be educated to build a nation strong enough to come back from a Stalingrad, tough enough to hold a Leningrad. We were shocked at the knee-pants Fascists in Mussolini's Italy and the brown-sh…
