This book tells the intensely personal saga of one man who eventually disavowed everything he was taught to believe, at tremendous personal cost. Derek Black grew up at the epicenter of white nationalism. His father founded Stormfront, the largest racist community on the Internet. His son went to a liberal college and slowly reexamined his beliefs and left his family's racism and anti-Semitism behind.
