George Lincoln Rockwell (2:04:28)
In this 2 hour video, the life and times of George Lincoln Rockwell is examined. George Lincoln Rockwell (March 9, 1918 – August 25, 1967) was an American politician and National Socialist. Born in Bloomington, Illinois, he was of English, Scottish and French ancestry. He joined the US Navy in 1940, serving in the Atlantic and Pacific theatres of war. He was considered a good pilot. He was demobbed in 1945. He went into advertising and received a $1000 prize for one of his adverts. Recalled to service for the Korean war in 1950 he served in the rank of Lieutenant-Commander. In 1959 he was unfairly thrown out of the Navy for his political views, one year short of retirement. Consequently, he founded a political party, which in 1960 was renamed the American Nazi Party (ANP). Attempting to draw attention to the injustice, George organised meeting after meeting, only to find that his meetings were refused, his right to speak curtailed, and his supporters attacked by thugs. After one meeting he was arrested and incredibly sent to a mental hospital for a month, an absolute travesty. Two weeks later, he was released, declared sane. This incredible traumatic experience resulted in the first of his many writings. George organised demonstrations, meetings, wrote books and leaflets, against the Jewish and Communist Influcence in the USA. Rejecting racial mixing, he advocated the resettlement of the African population back to Africa, a move supported by many black leaders. George was responsible for the slogan “White Power in 1966. In an interview, George dismissed the Holocaust atrocity lie, saying it never happened. In 1967, George was shot dead by an individual expelled from his party for repeatedly attempting to insert Marxist themes in party literature. Even in death, George was denied the military funeral to which he was entitled.
