From the Paper:

"As America continues to evolve many people believe that racism is a thing of the past. Laws against hate crimes, affirmative action mandates and other elements of American society have worked to erase the evil that used to be a cancerous growth in the nation. While these measurements have provided positive steps toward the abolishment of racism the cancer still grows within the bowels of America as is illustrated in Gathering Storm, America's Militia Threat by Morris Dees and James Corcoran."
