The FOCUS on NoVA Real Estate Team invites you to join Charlie Clark, Journalist with Falls Church News-Press “Grim Presence: The American Nazi Party in Arlington, Va., 1958-1983”.
Just a decade-and-a-half after the defeat of the German Nazi regime in World War II, an American Navy veteran and graphic designer named George Lincoln Rockwell chose Arlington County as his base of operations for his racist and anti-Semitic American Nazi Party. Why Arlington? Where were the locations of his various homes? What tactics did the Nazis use to protest and disrupt life downtown and in suburban Arlington? Why were followers attracted to Rockwell? How did he become internationally famous? How was he killed, where and why?
This illustrated talk will answer all those questions and more about the shocking, and sometimes forgotten, presence of his malevolent force within the borders of Arlington–a presence his followers commemorated in 2017.
This talk is brought to you by the FOCUS on NoVA REAL Estate Team at Century 21 Redwood Realty on behalf of the Village Drive Village.
