Inside the violence and radicalization of America’s neo-Nazi youth
Vanity Fair
Oct. 15, 2024
Brian Levin, a criminologist and professor emeritus at California State University, San Bernardino, was interviewed for an article about the radicalization of young people by neo-Nazis, and how prison is increasing their ranks.
“Replacement theory is being discussed not only on national TV, it’s also being discussed at bars, pool halls, and dinner tables,” says Brian Levin, a criminologist and professor emeritus at California State University, San Bernardino. “We’re not only failing to equip people to critically understand the roots of previous societal divisions from yesteryear that impact us today; we’re failing to address how these prejudices are amplified.”
“The danger is not only from these ideologues forming their own militant organizations bent on violence,” he adds, “but their influential role in a more broad cultural context with those who aren’t quite Nazis.”
