Overview

""This book is riveting yet shocking even for a girl who grew up in a racial minded cult. The amount of hate is alarming, enlightening, and a must-read for anyone wanting to make a difference against injustice."" --Rachel Jeffs, author of Breaking Free, activist, FLDS polygamist cult survivor The changing face of hate is on your doorstep... Matt Browning, an undercover detective in Arizona, thought he knew what hate looked like; that is, until he got a front row seat to White supremacy. What followed was a career of hardship and danger, and what he uncovered can no longer go left untold. For more than twenty-five years, Browning has been infiltrating, documenting, and disrupting white supremacy movements from the inside, gaining an intimate vantage point to the KKK, skinheads, border militias, Proud Boys, and other White Power groups, as they organized and grew, their ranks alarmingly including police force and military veterans. Together with his intrepid wife, Tawni, he adopted fake IDs and ideologies, seeking the arrest of its participants--none more so than J.T. Ready, a neo-Nazi who took ""hunting trips"" for border migrants while gaining mainstream acceptance as a political candidate--and terrorizing Browning's family. What others dismissed as fringe groups, Browning quickly recognized as large and interconnecting organizations permeating into every facet of American society, effectively spreading their dangerous and repugnant rhetoric at unprecedented speeds. Today, after the violent storming of the Capitol on January 6th, the threat posed by these toxic organizations can no longer be ignored by the public at large. In this imperative and gripping narrative, Browning gives readers the inside story of modern-day White supremacy in America in all of its ugly variation. Following his dramatic, high-stakes attempts to take down powerful White supremacists, the torment he faced whilst working undercover, and his eventual creation of the international Skinhead Intelligence Network, The Hate Next Door is a riveting, enlightening, and essential look at the what, where, when, and why of white supremacist groups, how to identify them, and why we must all do everything in our power to fight against them. ""This book is an invaluable wake up call to all of us regarding the work that is still left to be accomplished in order to understand and effectively address racism and extremism in every facet of American culture."" --Joel Beckstead, PhD Certified clinical psychologist, Clinical Director at the US Federal Indian Health Services, and former post-9/11 psychologist to the Pentagon
