Is Your Child a Target?
* Hate groups concentrate their recruiting efforts primarily
in high schools and to some extent in colleges and
universities.
* Young people are more likely to accept at face value the
racist ideology of the hatemonger. They are often naive and
easily brainwashed by racist propaganda because they don't
have the experience or facts at hand to refute the lies and
myths being fed to them.
* Lonely, marignalized youth seeking a sense of identity and
belonging are both the most attractive targets for racists and
their most useful tools once recruited.
* Emotionally vulnerable or angry young people are easily
indoctrinated by hatemongers and are often convinced to engage
in violence and to commit criminal acts to prove themselves by
following orders.
* Eager to be accepted, young recruits don't recognize the
abuse of power by the leaders and can be used to intimidate
opponents and to recruit other new members.
