520 8  The Ku Klux Klan has peaked three times in American 
       history: after the Civil War, around the 1960s Civil 
       Rights Movement, and in the 1920s, when the Klan spread 
       farthest and fastest. Recruiting millions of members even 
       in non-Southern states, the Klan's nationalist insurgency 
       burst into mainstream politics. Almost one hundred years 
       later, once again the pent-up anger of white Americans 
       left behind by a changing economy has directed itself at 
       immigrants and cultural outsiders and roiled a 
       presidential election. In The Politics of Losing, Rory 
       McVeigh and Kevin Estep trace the parallels between the 
       1920s Klan and today's right-wing backlash, identifying 
       the conditions that allow white nationalism to emerge from
       the shadows. White middle-class Protestant Americans in 
       the 1920s found themselves stranded by an economy that was
       increasingly industrialized and fueled by immigrant labor.
       Mirroring the Klan's earlier tactics, Donald Trump 
       delivered a message that mingled economic populism with 
       deep cultural resentments. McVeigh and Estep present a 
       sociological analysis of the Klan's outbreaks that goes 
       beyond Trump the individual to show how his rise to power 
       was made possible by a convergence of circumstances. The 
       experience of declining privilege and perceptions of lost 
       power can trigger a political backlash that overtly 
       asserts white-nationalist goals. The Politics of Losing 
       offers a rigorous and readable explanation for a recurrent
       phenomenon in American history, with important lessons 
       about the origins of our alarming political 
       climate.0Exhibition:
