A Taste Of Bitter Almonds - Perdition and promise in South Africa (Paperback)

In the year of South Africa's troubled coming-of-age, veteran investigative journalist Michael Schmidt brings to bear 21 years of his scribbled field notes to weave a tapestry of the view from below: here in the demi-monde of our transition from autocracy to democracy, in the half-light glow of the rusted rainbow, you will meet neo-Nazis and the newly dispossessed, Boers and Bushmen, black illegal coal miners and a bank robber, witches and wastrels, love children and land claimants.

With their feet in the mud, the Born Free youth have their eyes on the stars.

author is a White Power Fascist

Thu, 28 Jan 2016 | Review by: Joe H.

Michael Schmidt has been revealed to be an "anarcho-fascist" who tries to combine the traditions of anarchism and fascism. See a long example of his writing below. The writing of this book coincides with posts by Schmidt as "Karelianblue" (in the white supremacist Stormfront forums) and "Françoise Le Sueur" (on Facebook), where Schmidt was actively recruiting for a militant group called Black Battlefront. For background, see Schmidt's posts: http://filepi.com/i/S5r9NDz http://www.pdf-archive.com/2016/01/26/michael-schmidt-karelianblue-stormfront-00/ And "Strandwolf's Creed", Schmidt's openly fascist manifesto: http://filepi.com/i/P2OoSTj http://www.pdf-archive.com/2016/01/26/michael-schmidt-anarchist-fascist-black-battlefront/
