“…Kathleen Blee (2002) argues that extremist White racist groups recruit from the larger sentiment pool of "mild" White racism that is characteristic of much of the White population and then learn their extreme ideology within the groups while still leaving mainstream lives. Josh Adams and Vincent Roscigno (2005) examine the online discourse of white supremacist organizations, finding that nationalism, religion, and definitions of responsible citizenship are interwoven with more specific racial claims.…”

This paper draws on work in the social construction of race and ethnicity to explain why race/ethnic divisions are so often axes of domination and why these divisions are central to social movements. Ethnic/racial groups are constructed in political processes that are intertwined with state formation and social movements. Processes of state formation and collective action create ethnic/racial groups, define majorities and minorities, and create racial/ethnic structures of domination. Physical and social segregation in tandem with intergenerational inheritance creates network cliquing that reinforces group boundaries, group differences, and group interests. Movements by members of dominant racial/ethnic majorities differ from movements by members of subordinate racial/ethnic minorities in key ways including access to democratic processes for achieving group goals, experience of repression, need for allies, identity construction, processes of consciousness raising, and bases of mobilization. The "ethnic dimensions" matter for all social movements.

“…Ravndal (2013) har påpekt hvordan Anders Behring Breivik brukte nettsider for å finne ideologiske begrunnelser for sine handlinger, spille voldelige nettspill, forberede angrep og spre sitt budskap. Et mer generelt poeng er at nettsidene fungerer som et virtuelt fellesskap hvor såkalte «ensomme ulver» kan få følelsen av å vaere en del av en større «flokk» og hvor aktivister kan oppfordre hverandre til å begå voldelige handlinger (Adams & Roscigno 2005;Bowman-Grieve 2008;de Koster & Houtman 2008).…”

“…Social movements therefore must use new and alternative technologies, media outlets, and forms of communication such as the Internet, art, and music (ADAMS; ROSCIGNO, 2005;DUFFy, 2003;EyERMAN, 2002). Corte and Edwards argue that while music, art, and film are given "a secondary status analytically compared to more tangible social and political movement productions like protests," that they play an important role in cultivating a collective identity and building social movements (2008, p.5).…”

This study uses grounded theory to examine "hatecore" song lyrics used as a communication strategy to spread skinhead ideology. Results indicate that lyrics portray ethnic and religious minorities, and homosexuals as inferior and subhuman. Jews, the government and whites who oppose skinhead ideology are described as part of the problem. They are also used to recruit disenfranchised whites to the movement by defining them as disempowered and losing influence as "others" gain it as well as through positive messages of white racial pride. As with other social movements, results indicate that power plays a central role in defining the problem facing disenfranchised whites, the cause, and prescribing solutions found in hatecore song lyrics.
