Breaking Hate by Christian Picciolini
A stunning exploration of how to heal a nation reeling from extremist violence from a viral TED speaker and onetime white-supremacist leader who now work as a peace activist disengaging hateful radicals.
Christian Picciolini was born in the Blue Island neighbourhood of Chicago, where he was radicalised at the age of fourteen and went on to become the leader of the notorious Chicago Hammerskins, one of the most violent hate groups in America and the singer of two white power propaganda punk bands. After leaving the hate movement when he was nineteen years old, Picciolini began the painstaking process of rebuilding his life. He went on to earn a degree in International Business and International Relations from DePaul University and launch an entertainment and media firm. In 2010, he co-founded Life After Hate, a nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping communities and organisations gain the knowledge necessary to implement long-term solutions that counter all types of racism and violent extremism.
