>>> WITHIN THE CROWD OF WHITE
SUPREMACISTS RALLYING LAST
WEEKEND IN CHARLOTTESVILLE,
VIRGINIA, WERE MANY OF THE
FAMILIAR FACES OF THAT MOVEMENT.
OLDER, GRIEVED MEN WEARING NAZI
REGALIA AND LONGTIME LEADERS
LIKE DAVID DUKE, THE FORMER
GRAND WIZARD OF THE KU KLUX KLAN
WHO THIS WEEK PUBLICLY THANKED
PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR HIS BOTH
SIDES EXPLANATION OF THE
VIOLENCE THAT KILLED HEATHER
HEYER, BUT THERE ALSO WERE MANY
NEW FACES CARRYING TORCHES
THROUGH TOWN AND CHANTING
RACIST, ANTI-SEMITIC SLOGANS.
YOUNG MEN NOT WEARING WHITE
SHEETS, BUT WHITE POLO SHIRTS
AND KHAKI PANTS.
WHO ARE THEY AND WHERE DID THEY
LEARN TO HATE?
OUR GAD I SCHWARTZ SAT DOWN FOR
OUR SPOTLIGHT.
>> THE FACELESS HOODED, KKK,
NAZI SKINHEAD, MANY SEEING THEM
AS A DYING BREED WITH YOUNGER
GENERATIONS WELCOMING DIVERSITY
WITH OPEN ARMS.
>> YOU'RES WILL NJEWS WILL NOT REPLACE US!
>> THEY TOLD A DIFFERENT STORY.
>> I HAD A LOT OF FREE TIME, AND
I BELIEVE THE WHITE CULTURE IN
THE UNITED STATES IS AT THREAT
IN ITS OWN WAY.
>> YOUNG, COLLEGE EDUCATED,
CLEAN-CUT AND RADICALIZED.
THE ALT-RIGHT MOVEMENT READY TO
STAND UP FOR WHITE POWER.
>> YOUNG PEOPLE PLAY A HUGE ROLE
IN THE ALT-RIGHT.
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO ARE FOR THE
MOST PART FEELING THE POLICIES
OF THE PAST.
>> Reporter: AND THEY'RE RIPE
FOR RECRUITING.
WHITE SUPREMACIST GROUPS HAVE
TAKEN TO COLLEGE CAMPUSES TO
POST RACIST FLYERS.
THEY'RE WORKING TO PRESENT A
MORE APPEALING BRAND.
>> WE NEED TO FIND A WAY TO
ACHIEVE POWER TOGETHER.
>> THE ALT-RIGHT WAS
SPECIFICALLY A WAY TO RE-BRAND
WHITE SUPREMACY FOR A MILLENNIAL
GENERATION, MAKE IT LOOK
PROFESSIONAL AND TELEGENIC.
>> THE MOVEMENT MOST EFFECTIVE
ONLINE.
A RECENT STUDY FROM GEORGE
WASHINGTON'S PROGRAM ON
EXTREMISM FOUND WHITE
SUPREMACIST TWITTER ACCOUNTS
HAVE INCREASED MORE THAN 600%
SINCE 2012.
>> ONLINE RADICALIZATION IS A
PROCESS.
OFTEN IT STARTS OUT WITH A YOUNG
MAN IN SPACES WHERE THERE'S A
LOT OF EDGY, REBELLIOUS HUMOR
AND THEN IT MOVES TO THROWING
AROUND NAZI SYMBOLS IN AN
ATTEMPT TO BE SHOCKING AND WHEN
YOUNG PEOPLE ARE TAKING ON THESE
IMAGES AND WORDS IRONICALLY,
THEY'RE NORMALIZING THEM AND
THEN THEY BECOME MORE ACCEPTING
TO MORE EXTREME RIGHT-WING
IDEAS.
>> 19-YEAR-OLD NICHOLAS FUENTES
JUST FINISHED HIS FRESHMAN YEAR
AT BOSTON UNIVERSITY.
>> YOU'RE ENTITLED TO BE IN
FAVOR OF, IN SUPPORT OF, AND IN
ADVOCACY FOR EVERY SINGLE
IDENTITY GROUP EXCEPT FOR WHITE
PEOPLE.
YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE BEEN BROUGHT
UP BASICALLY BEING TOLD THAT
YOU'RE A SECOND-CLASS CITIZEN.
I THINK IT'S APPEALING TO SAY WE
ARE FINALLY GOING TO STAND UP
FOR OUR INTERESTS.
>> WOULD YOU HAVE SAID WHAT YOU
WERE SAYING ABOUT WHITE
OPPRESSION A YEAR AGO?
>> I DON'T THINK I WAS THERE
YET.
NUMBER ONE, I WAS YOUNG.
NUMBER TWO, I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL
SO I WAS BEING FED ALL OF THIS
SOCIAL JUSTICE PROPAGANDA.
>> HIS RAPID JOURNEY TO THE
RIGHT, LARGELY TOOK PLACE IN THE
DIGITAL WORLD.
>> ONCE YOU STARTED FINDING THIS
ONLINE, WAS THERE AN INCREASED
MOMENTUM IN YOUR APPETITE FOR
THIS KNOWLEDGE?
>> I THINK THERE DEFINITELY WAS
BECAUSE THE MORE THAT I HEARD
FROM DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND PEOPLE
FROM DIFFERENT OPINIONS IN THE
MAINSTREAM THE MORE I REALIZED
THAT THERE IS SO MUCH MORE OUT
THERE THAT YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO
THINK ABOUT.
>> BUT THOSE IDEAS CAN TRANSCEND
THE SCREEN.
>> DID PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET
TELL YOU YOU SHOULD GO TO
CHARLOTTESVILLE?
>> YEAH.
A LOT OF PEOPLE INVITED MEAD TO
CHARLOTTESVILLE AND I QUICKLY
REALIZED JUST HOW IMPORTANT IT
WAS FOR PEOPLE THAT WERE ONLINE
TO COME IN AND SHOW AND
DEMONSTRATE IN THE REAL WORLD
AND TO MAKE IT KNOWN THAT WE ARE
A PRESENCE IN THE COUNTRY.
>> Reporter: THAT PRESENCE TOOK
A VIOLENT FORM IN
CHARLOTTESVILLE IN PRESIDENT
TRUMP'S NOW INFAMOUS RESPONSE
WAS WELCOMED BY THE MOVEMENT.
>> YOU HAD SOME VERY BAD PEOPLE
IN THAT GROUP, BUT YOU ALSO HAD
PEOPLE THAT WERE VERY FINE
PEOPLE.
>> DO YOU SEE A DANGER IN PEOPLE
HEARING MESSAGES, TAKING THEM
LITERALLY AND BECOMING VIOLENT?
>> I CONDEMN VIOLENCE IN ALL ITS
FORMS.
I'VE KNOWN FIRST-HAND VIOLENCE,
BUT I WILL TELL YOU, THAT THE
ALTERNATIVE IF WE DON'T SPEAK UP
ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING WILL BE
FAR, FAR WORSE.
>> A NEW GENERATION, AN OLD
MESSAGE OF DIVISION.
FOR SUNDAY TODAY, GADI SCHWARTZ,
