Zusammenfassung:
In American Pogroms, terrorism expert Daniel Byman traces two centuries of mob violence against religious, ethnic, and racial communities in the United States. Providing detailed case studies, Byman shows how pogroms have dramatically shaped election outcomes, immigration patterns, and the demographic composition of this country, while inflicting terror on millions of Americans. Byman warns that increased polarization and selective news consumption in recent years has coarsened discourse and legitimized violence, raising the risk that at least some violence will return.
