VANESSA Neubauer’s reading of The Fame of a Dead Man’s Deeds continues this week with Dr. William Pierce’s reactions to the claim that his work consists of just “racism and hate.” Dr. Pierce believes that it is wrong to pathologize a legitimate emotion that is appropriate in some circumstances. But he also adds that he spends very little of his time “hating,” and prefers to be doing constructive work for the future. He also contends that it is his detractors who are the ones truly consumed by that emotion, pointing out their passionate hatred of any expression of racial solidarity among Gentiles.
