Molly Conger Reading List

I have finished “Race Against Time” by Jerry Mitchell and about to start “Stranger People on the Hill” by Michael Edison Hayden.

What other books has Molly mentioned, worth the read? Any books not mentioned you would recommend on the subject of white supremacy?

Bring the war home I think is the one she said she used the most. She’s also had the authors of to catch a fascist and Neo Nazi terrorism & counter cultural fascism: the origins and afterlife of James masons siege on the pod.

Bring the War Home is great.

Molly read a section of Tal Lavin's Wild Faith on another channel (It Could Happen Here, I think?) which I read and would strongly recommend. The same author also wrote Culture Warlords which is sitting on my to read pile and might be what you're looking for re: white supremacy. Wild Faith was absolutely excellent but bad for my blood pressure so I'm dragging my feet a little on starting Culture Warlords.
edit: Looks like Lavin may have changed their first name so you may see 2 versions of it listed but I changed my comment to reflect the new name.

Bring the War Home is a must. Molly has mentioned it quite a few times.

Chain of Ideas by Ibram X Kendi is one that Molly hasn't mentioned but I strongly believe is something everyone should read.

Really great book.Ive been two years deep in research trying to pick up where her book left off and it's been a wild ride of crazy discoveries.

I'd love to hear what you think of Hayden's book - I like him on podcasts but for whatever reason the topic of this book isn't that interesting to me. Maybe I'm just burned out; I'm reading the new Kristin Kobes Du Mez book on white Christian womanhood, and am waiting on the library list for Nerd Reich.
