TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Women and Organized Racial Terrorism in the United States JO - Studies in conflict and terrorism A1 - Blee, Kathleen M. SP - 421 EP - 433 VL - 28 IS - 5 N2 - Racial terrorism--violence perpetrated by organized groups against racial minorities in pursuit of white and Aryan supremacist agendas--has played a significant role in U.S. society and politics. Women have been important actors in much of this violence. This article examines women's involvement in racial terrorism from the immediate post-Civil War period to the present. Although organized racial violence by women has increased over time, this trend may not continue. The strategic directions and tactical choices of Aryan and white supremacist groups are likely to alter the extent and nature of women's involvement in racial terrorism in the future.
