| dc.description.abstract | Throughout the course of American history, white supremacist groups have influenced political and social constructions. While many would argue their influence has largely disappeared, political figures, including the president, have equated white supremacy with black liberation. The present study demonstrates the pitfalls of associating these two groups by analyzing the language used by BLM and NSM’s website. In order to analyze the websites, I utilized two word-count programs (Latent Dirichlet Allocation and Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count) to parse the massive amounts of data. These programs portray the stark division of content between the BLM and the NSM. After analyzing the results of the study, I provide several methodological and research recommendations to help guide future research. Implications from this research include negating the political claims that white supremacy and racial justice groups occupy two sides of the same spectrum. Instead, both groups hold unique ideology that attempts to solve different issues and proposes different solutions. | en_US |
