1. Build­ing on infor­ma­tion pre­sented in past dis­cus­sions with Kevin Coogan, this pro­gram high­lights more of the oper­a­tions of Fran­cis Parker Yockey, a Nazi agent dur­ing World War II and active on behalf of inter­na­tional fas­cism until his death in 1960. (The infor­ma­tion in this inter­view comes from Kevin’s land­mark text Dreamer of the Day: Fran­cis Parker Yockey and the Post­war Fas­cist Inter­na­tional; copy­right 1999 [soft-cover]; ISBN# 1–57027-039–2.)

2. Lit­tle known out­side of the post­war fas­cist inter­na­tional Coogan alludes to in his book’s title, Yockey has wielded a pro­found influ­ence on the devel­op­ment of con­tem­po­rary fas­cism. (For more on Yockey, see other inter­views with Kevin Coogan includ­ing: FTR#’s 185, 212, 221, 231, 237.)

3. The broad­cast high­lights Yockey’s con­nec­tions to promi­nent Amer­i­can fas­cists Willis Carto and Roger Pear­son. The pub­lisher of Spot­light and a prime mover in the estab­lish­ment of the Insti­tute for His­tor­i­cal Review (the focal point of the Holocaust-denial move­ment), Carto pub­lished Yockey’s opus Imperium.

4. Imperium is a man­i­festo that advo­cates a post-World War II revival of fas­cism, cen­tered on a united, fas­cist Europe designed to destroy (among other things) Amer­i­can influ­ence in Europe and around the world. The pro­gram high­lights Carto’s suc­cess­ful incor­po­ra­tion of the National Youth Alliance into his polit­i­cal sphere of influ­ence. (The NYA began as a youth for Wal­lace movement.)

5. The broad­cast also sets forth some of Pearson’s activ­i­ties on behalf of inter­na­tional fas­cism and updates con­tem­po­rary Yockey influ­ences in alter­na­tive sub-cultures aimed at young people.

6. Pro­gram High­lights Include: an ide­o­log­i­cal split within the Lib­erty Lobby that has mar­gin­al­ized Carto’s influ­ence within the racist and anti-Semitic right.

7. Roger Pearson’s par­tic­i­pa­tion in the World Anti-Communist League (see also: RFA#’s 14, 15, 29, 30, 36, 37, Mis­cel­la­neous Archive show M24 and FTR#’s 84, 113);

8. Pearson’s work on behalf of the Inter­na­tional Asso­ci­a­tion for the Advance­ment of Eugen­ics (for more on the eugen­ics move­ment, see also: Mis­cel­la­neous Archive Shows M12, M60, and FTR#’s 32A, 32B, 117, 124;

9. Yockey influ­ences on black metal music fas­cists (see also: FTR#’s 211, 222);

10. Yockey influ­ences on “con­spir­acy cul­ture”; asso­ci­a­tions between the alter­na­tive pub­lisher Feral House and some con­tem­po­rary fas­cist and Satanist ele­ments; the recent arrest of a nazi black metal musi­cian at National Alliance leader William Pierce’s com­pound in West Vir­ginia (for more on Pierce, see FTR#’s 90, 212); Pierce’s past asso­ci­a­tion with both Carto and Amer­i­can Nazi Party leader George Lin­coln Rock­well. (See also; RFA#’s10-13, as well as FTR#’s 70, 71, 80, 81, 94, 95, 188.)
