  Unmasking the Klansman may read like a work of fiction but is actually a biography of Asa Carter, one of the South's most notorious white supremacists (and secret Klansman). In the early 1960s Carter became a secret adviser to George Wallace and wrote the Alabama governor's infamous 1963 inauguration speech vowing "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." When Carter disappeared from Alabama in 1972, few knew that he had assumed a new identity in Abilene, Texas, masquerading as a Cherokee American novelist. Using the name "Forrest" Carter, he published three successful Western novels, including The Rebel Outlaw, which Clint Eastwood made into a movie. His last book, The Education of Little Tree (a fake biography of his supposed Indian childhood) posthumously became a number one bestseller in 1991. 
   
   
   
  Author Dan T. Carter uncovered "Forrest" Carter's true identity while researching his biography of Georgia Wallace and in a New York Times op-ed he exposed Carter's deception. Although the difficulties of uncovering the full story of the secretive Carter initially led him to abandon the project, in 2018 he gained access to more than two hundred interviews by the late Anniston newsman, Fred Burger. These recordings and his two decades of exhaustive research finally brought Asa Carter's story into focus. Unmasking the Klansman is the result.

  Fear Conditioning - Training...

  Fear conditioning is a psychological phenomenon in which individuals learn to associate fear with a specific stimulus. This process is a form of classical conditioning, where a neutral stimulus becomes linked to an aversive experience, causing a conditioned fear response. Fear conditioning is fundamental to human and animal behavior, playing a crucial role in survival, but it can also contribute to anxiety disorders, phobias, and social manipulation. 
  The foundation of fear conditioning was laid by Ivan Pavlov’s classical conditioning experiments, later expanded by John B. Watson in his controversial “Little Albert” study. In this experiment, a young child was conditioned to fear a white rat by pairing its presence with a loud, frightening noise. This research demonstrated how fear responses could be artificially created and generalized to other stimuli. The brain plays a central role in this process, particularly the amygdala, which is responsible for processing emotional reactions and linking experiences with fear. 
  Fear conditioning occurs in many aspects of life, from early childhood experiences to societal influences. Parents, teachers, and authority figures may unintentionally condition children to associate certain actions, places, or people with fear, shaping their behavior and worldview. For example, a child punished harshly for speaking out may develop a lifelong fear of confrontation. Similarly, fear conditioning is a powerful tool used in politics, advertising, and the media to influence public perception and behavior.

  Shadowy geniuses whispering, Rasputin-like, into the ears of our elected politicians under a cloak of secrecy, or a crucial but undervalued cog in the machinery of government? … Or just a rag-tag band of weirdos and misfits?
  Despite the acres of speculation devoted to special advisers from Alastair Campbell to Dominic Cummings, their role is much misunderstood. Who are the people Piers Morgan once called 'these miserable little creatures' and just how much influence do they have?
  Peter Cardwell served as SpAd to four Cabinet ministers, acting as media adviser, political fixer, troubleshooter and occasional wardrobe consultant. In this candid, compelling and frequently hilarious insider account, he reveals what the job really involves, from dealing with counter-terror emergencies in Cobra to explaining to the Justice Secretary what a dental dam is, to having your inside leg measured in a government office.
  Packed with advice on navigating the perks and pitfalls of the job, The Secret Life of Special Advisers will inform and entertain anyone who has ever wondered what these mysterious figures really do all day.
