Racist groups in US emboldened by arrival of Donald Trump

THE days of the white supremacist Ku Klux Klan hiding behind white sheets while they terrified or killed African-Americans are receding into the past, but a new type of racism is emerging in America that prefers Brooks Brothers suits and promotes its agenda with the click of a mouse.
The number of racist-driven groups has risen over the past number of years to almost 900 and experts contend some of these groups are being emboldened by the incendiary rhetoric of this year’s presidential campaign and the election of Donald Trump.
