It told their story from the inside\u003cbr\u003eout, complete with interviews, recruiting pamphlets, cartoons, rants, sermons, threats, police\u003cbr\u003ereports, and more. The accompanying analysis by veteran investigative reporter James Ridgeway\u003cbr\u003edetailed the movement 's volatile history and its expansion beginning in the 1980s, insisting that\u003cbr\u003ethe groups making up this \"fringe\" culture were too powerful--and too much a part of American\u003cbr\u003eculture--to be ignored or dismissed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the book 's prescience about the dangers of the racist far-right became manifest in the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995, a second edition of BLOOD IN THE FACE was released with a new introduction charting the rise of the Militia Movement to which Timothy McVeigh and his co-conspirators were connected. Since then, both the book and the documentary film that accompanied its release (also titled BLOOD IN THE FACE), have earned cult followings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the past 25 years, Ridgeway 's final warning--that the \"fringe was becoming part of the fabric\" of American politics and culture, have come to chilling fruition in the rise of the Tea Party, the racist backlash against the presidency of Barack Obama, the resurgence of anti-immigrant Nativism, the growth of racist far-right media, and the election of Donald Trump with the thunderous support of white nationalists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Ridgeway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1642595071\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781642595079\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Haymarket Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"James Ridgeway","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43993541902591,"sku":"9781642595079","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0cf7bc1d-498d-435d-bff5-64e19b639801.jpg?v=1683324908","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/blood-in-the-face-revised-james-ridgeway-9781642595079","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
