About this listen

Kelvin Pierce was raised to be a hard core racist. His father, Dr. William Luther Pierce III, was founder and leader of the National Alliance, one of the most well-known White Supremacist organizations in the world. In 1978 William Pierce wrote The Turner Diaries, which has been labeled “the bible of the racist right” to this day. All the while, Pierce indoctrinated his son with tenets of White Supremacy, interspersed with physical and psychological abuse. By the time the author left home he was a seething morass of hate and suffering. Read about his eventual recovery and transformation. Nationalism Racism & Discrimination

Exploration of a conflicted releationship

I am not a big fan of most autobiographies, but Sins of My Father: Growing Up with America’s Most Dangerous White Supremacist intrigued me. Author Kelvin Pierce explores his conflicted relationship with his father, white supremacists William Pierce, founder of the Neo-Nazi organization, The National Alliance, and the author of the notorious Turner Diaries. W. Pierce abandoned his family for hate, dedicating his life to it. In his book, Kelvin recounts how his abusive father’s activities stigmatized him and his family and submerged him in a legacy of hate that he struggled to overcome. Throughout the book, the author acknowledges his paradoxical continued love for his abusive and infamous father, reminding us that the ties between a parent and a child can remain strong despite abuse and damage done to us and others.

The book does more than simply tell a “mommy-dearest” story of personal abuse. It explores William Pierce’s savvy use of the media to spread his gospel of race hatred, the techniques he used to target followers, and the ties and rivalries between the National Alliance and other racist organizations.

Mr. K. Pierce has taken a divergent path from his father’s teachings and his illness of hate. Where his father valued white supremacy above his family, Mr. K. Pierce follows a path of inclusivity, speaking out against his father’s work and founding a charity to help orphans in the Republic of Georgia, from where he adopted his two daughters.
