I have read that Withrow led the Students youth wing of the Tom Metzger's White Aryan Resistance before turning his back on WN and marrying some latino? He now does anti-rascist workshops, TV talkshows and lecture tours!

Sold his soul for sheckles and some latino ass!

In Withrow's real life story the former former White Student Union organizer Greg Withrow. Withrow had openly denounced the white-supremacy movement and was crucified by his former Comrades, his hands were nailed to a plank and he was slashed with a razorblade.

I feel they should have taken this real life example to use as the ending of the film! :D

I personally like the way the Americans often deal wih traitors, it shows the state & the sellouts there is a price to pay for fuckin with us.

In the UK we have beatings also but there are few willing to get the hands bloody these days.

It's different in Europe, much different as you will know being involved with B&H.

Traitors and sellouts are the lowest of the low, far worse than any other enemy, even the jew!

In England now we see the sellout liberals infesting WN with their multi-Culti liberal crap & the number of REAL hardliners is getting smaller all the time. :mad:

It is up to us Comrade to stand tall and carry the NS banner through the storm! 88!

Hail Victory/Sieg Heil!

>>"This powerful and thought-provoking documentary examines the dramatic story of one-time white supremacist leader Gregory Withrow, and in so doing explores the underlying themes of violence, racism. and domination in American life and culture. At the height of his involvement in the movement in 1988, Withrow fell in love with a woman whose parents had fled Nazi Germany. His own subsequent flight from the militant White Aryan Resistance captured the imagination of the national media when Withrow was found beaten and "crucified," his hands nailed to a board.

>>"Now, more than a decade later, Withrow is married to Maria, a Mexican-American woman, and lives a low-key, semi-isolated rural existence. Unlike simplistic stories about "evil racists turned model-citizens," Blink explores the complex middle ground where Withrow still battles his demons, at times questioning the possibility of fundamental personal change. The painful irony of his predicament is that when he renounced the world of racial hatred he was left with the same enraged, alienated masculine self that once propelled him into the movement. A stereotyped enemy no longer provides an easy target for his gnawing anger. And the mythic power he once enjoyed has been replaced by a silent, uneasy emptiness.

>>"Blink also examines the mass media's role in creating a caricatured persona for Withrow as a "white trash racist." The film illustrates how the media could demonize a racist such as Withrow and avoid confronting the more insidious forms of racism that permeate American life. Through clips of Withrow on the talk-show circuit following his "crucifixion," the film shows how the media abruptly recast him as a "redeemed warrior." As a white supremacist, he was an icon of evil; after the attack, he became an icon of redemption. Both constructions deny Withrow his humanity in its full complexity. "<<
