Teaching White Supremacy: America's Democratic Ordeal and the Forging of Our National Identity
Beset by book bans and politicized curricula, historians today will not be surprised that teaching history has long been a high-stakes contest over national identity.

Beginning in the 1970s, groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis congealed into a larger coalition, encompassing white separatism, Christian Identity worshippers, 1980s global paramilitary mercenaries, and 1990s domestic militias. The 1983 declaration …
