But antisemitism and racism went up—not down—after the war’s end. Violence broke out in cities across the country, and the number of organized hate groups more than doubled from 1940 to 1946. . . . . . . and are much more numerous than just the Klan, the Proud Boys, and the Oath Keepers — listen to the interview.
