”Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys are part of a trend of Far Right organizing that departs from explicitly White nationalist contemporaries, and often fuses antiracist language into otherwise nationalist, misogynistic, libertarian & xenophobic platforms.” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz

”When asked to respond to antifascists’ charge that Patriot Prayer is racist, Joey Gibson, [who is Japanese-American] said, ‘Why is it we have way more [people] of color than they have?…I am darker than 90% of those people that are calling me a racist.‘” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz

Some far-right groups are explicitly ”Aryan,” others ”align with White nationalist politics on some principles but embrace a broader notion of America-first nationalism, which doesn’t discriminate on race, as long as other far-right principles are shared.” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz

In 1985 ”Tom Metzger, founder of White Aryan Resistance, led supporters to join Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and supporters in a meeting…based on shared notions that Blacks & Whites should have separate nations and based on shared antisemitism.” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz

“The KKK and the Aryan Nation[s] neither invite or desire the presence of non-whites at their meetings,” wrote Johnson, the Black cofounder of E Pluribus Unum. ”The militia does...The militia does not hyphenate its membership. We are all Americans first.” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz

If race isn’t the glue that binds some Far Right groups together, what is? ”Disparities of wealth & income…” Patriarchy. And a vision of the US in which multiculturalism represents the ”ethical embodiment of an exceptional American national identity.” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz

”Far-right positions on gender roles also provide common ground for these groups. Alex DiBranco, a Yale doctoral candidate on social movements and the US Right, makes the case that the contemporary Far Right is as much about misogyny as it is about race.” https://escholarship.org/content/qt1q86f20p/qt1q86f20p_noSplash_28e66e3e1ca21c4a3cae5d22483da0b9.pdf?t=pz0jxz
