Homegrown Hate: Why White Nationalists and Militant Islamists Are Waging War Against the United States

Who are the American citizens--militant White nationalists and militant Islamists--committing acts of terrorism against their own country? What are their grievances and why do they hate? How can this transnational peril be effectively addressed?

Homegrown Hate is a groundbreaking and deeply researched work that directly compares militant White nationalists and militant Islamists in the United States. In this timely book, scholar and holistic justice activist Sara Kamali examines their self-described beliefs, grievances, and rationales and details their organizational structures. She presents compelling insight into the most pressing domestic threat to homeland security: American citizens who are targeting the United States according to their respective narratives of holy war. She also expertly provides the tools to combat this hate from within, eloquently offering hope in uncertain and divisive times. Innovative and engaging, Homegrown Hate is an indispensable resource for students, policy makers, and all who care about the future of civil rights and justice in the United States.
