description: A revealing unsettling portrait of white nationalism told through the lives of three women whose experiences with far-right extremism offer a new understanding of America today.After the election of Donald J. Trump journalist Seyward Darby went looking for the women of the so-called alt-right--really just white nationalism with a new label. The mainstream media depicted the alt-right as a bastion of angry white men but was it? As women headlined resistance to the Trump administration's bigotry and sexism most notably at the women's marches Darby wanted to know why others were joining a movement espousing racism and anti-feminism. Who were these women and what did their activism reveal about America's past present and future? Darby researched dozens of women across the country before settling on three: Corinna Olsen Ayla Stewart and Lana Lokteff. Each was born in 1979 and became a white nationalist in the post-9/11 era. Their respective stories of radicalization upend much of what we assume about women politics and political extremism.
