The Rise of the Alt-Right (Part 1)

In the critical acclaimed alt-right series, Trevor traces the birth and growth of the far right, flowing from the Oklahoma City bombing to the modern day.

In Part 1, we start with the origins of the alt-right and ask where did the ideology come from? Why are people compelled to join far-right movements? Who are its leaders? Trevor traces connections between the Turner Diaries, the incident at Ruby Ridge that birthed a massive growth of the right-wing militia movement, the Waco siege, the Oklahoma City bombing, Y2K, and more to show the fallacy of the ‘lone wolf’ narrative. Instead, these events are the trajectory of a cohesive alt-right movement.
