  • Fascism, Anti-Semitism, and the Roots of Oregon's White Power
    Journal of Social Justice, Vol. 9, 2019 (© 2019) ISSN: 2164-7100 Fascism, Anti-Semitism, and the Roots of Oregon’s White Power Movement Shane Burley and Alexander Reid Ross1 Conducted through archival research of primary documents including period newspaper articles, meeting notes, and political pamphlets at the Oregon Historical Society, this article investigates the development of inter-war fascism in Oregon as a key inflection point in the germination of the modern white power movement. Contrasting the novel organization and dissemination of inter-war fascism in Oregon with the earlier rise of the Ku Klux Klan, this research illustrates the influences of European ideological currents on the domestic far right as it attempted to consolidate dispersed networks of ethnic interest groups and political leaders into a radical force for change. We track the successes and failures of the fascist movement as its followers integrated within the ranks of law enforcement and public officials, and the impact of the Second World War on their ensuing, conflictive relationship with the federal government. Our findings indicate that the inter-war fascist movement in Oregon saw the broadening of U.S. “Americanism” to include Catholics and immigrants while simultaneously seeing its numbers dwindle. This emergence of a more inclusive sense of whiteness, combined with resentment against the 1 This article is an extended study based on an earlier paper the authors published.

And in California, the leading Fascist demagogue in the United States pokes his head out of the hole he had crawled into. He proclaims his intentions of using Los Angeles as the base for rebuilding a national Fascist outfit. This is Gerald L K. Smith. Fuehrer Smith has announced his invasion of Los Angeles. He has challenged every decent working man and progr~ssive in the city to stop his plans to spread religious and racial hatred and organize Fascist terrorists. Now is the time to stop him!

Though Jews had been living in Minnesota since the mid- nineteenth century, the end of World War I marked the beginning of a decades- long period during which Jews faced discrimination and exclusion from both formal and informal cultural and economic networks.

In the 1920s, Minnesota’s Ku Klux Klan targeted Jews, Catholics, and immi- grants, as well as people of color. An increase in nativist sentiment, in part a reaction to the Russian Rev- olution of 1917, also resulted in the immigration quota system of 1924.

  • Swastikas and Silver Shirts: the Dawn of American Nazism
    ABSTRACT SWASTIKAS AND SILVER SHIRTS: THE DAWN OF AMERICAN NAZISM by Austin Carter Hall From 1922-1936, there was a considerable effort by Americans, German-Americans, and Germans to spread Nazi ideology throughout the United States. Figures such as Henry Ford who owned the anti-Semitic newspaper the Dearborn Independent was one of the first people to exert a concerted, nation-wide effort to fund anti-Semitic literature aimed at the common folk of America. With the NSDAP forming in 1920, some Nazis looked to the United States as a place outside of Germany where Nazism could flourish. Numerous organizations emerged in an attempt to spread hateful ideological stances. Alongside the rise of the “Second Klan,” American Nazism began to rear its head culminating in 1933 with the formation of the two groups that are prevalent in this study: William Dudley Pelley’s Silver Shirt Legion of America and Heinz Spanknöbel’s Friends of New Germany. A failed Hitleresque Beer Hall Putsch attempt by the San Diego Silver Shirts, the smuggling in of Nazi propaganda by the Friends of New Germany, and the ensuing Congressional investigations into these two groups demonstrates the lengths that some organizations and their leaders went in order to provide anti-Semitic, anti-democratic, pro-Hitler, and pro-fascist literature, ideals, and ideas throughout the United States in the interwar era.
