It was during this time he became active in far-right politics, and associated himself with the Black Front serving as a recruiter. === First political activities === [[File:Edward Reed Fields.jpg|left|thumb|200x200px|One of the very few photo of Edward Reed Fields.]] Fields joined the Columbians, an anti-black and anti-Semitic group, in high school, and joined along with [[J. B. Stoner]] in the Christian Anti-Jewish Party in 1952. During his activity in this group, he served as its Executive Director. He was also a member of the American Anti-Communist Society in 1950 and 1951. === Story in the National State's Party === [[File:NSRP.png|left|thumb|180x180px|The flag and logo of the National State's Rights.]] In 1958, Fields founded the National States' Rights Party, which wanted to re-propose racial segregation and white supremacy. He served as its National Director while Stoner served as its National Chairman. Also, Fields edited the party's newspaper, "The Thunderbolt". ==== Work with the Alabama's government ==== Fields and the National States' Rights Party in 1963 were enlisted by Alabama Gov. [[George Wallace]] and state public safety chief Albert Lingo to create pretexts that Wallace used to order closed public schools that were slated for integration and to deploy state troopers—over the objections of local authorities—in communities otherwise determined to comply with federal court orders to desegregate. ==== The letter to Bill Baxley ==== In 1976, following Alabama Attorney General Bill Baxley's opening of prosecution against the bombers of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Fields wrote a letter to Baxley, referring to him with a racial slur and threatening to assassinate him. Baxley responded with his own letter the following day, telling Fields to kiss his ass. === Exiting the party === [[File:Klansman Reed Field.jpg|left|thumb|Edward Reed Field wearing the suit of the [[Ku Klux Klan|KKK]].]] Following J. B. Stoner's imprisonment for his involvement in the 1958 Bethel Baptist Church bombing, Fields lost faith in the party and was expelled from the party in August 1983 for prosecute his activity with [[Ku Klux Klan]]. He continued his journalistic career with the newspaper "The Truth At Last". === Activity in other parties === Fields founded the white supremacist America First Party in 1993, and spoke at the Populist Party's 1994 convention. == Trivia == * Fields attended law school in Atlanta, but dropped out in 1953. * When he was young, he attended the Palmer College of Chiropractic and graduated in 1957 and began practicing as a chiropractor, but this activity ended when he started to become more active in his political activism. * Fields attended the 2001 funeral of Klansman [[Byron De La Beckwith]], who murdered civil rights activist Medgar Evers [[Category:United States of America]] [[Category:Male]] [[Category:Modern Villains]] [[Category:Living Villains]] [[Category:Vocal Villains]] [[Category:Elderly]] [[Category:Partners in Crime]] [[Category:Leader]] [[Category:Political]] [[Category:Propagandist]] [[Category:Charismatic]] [[Category:Affably Evil]] [[Category:Karma Houdini]] [[Category:Christianity]] [[Category:Fanatics]] [[Category:Jingoists]] [[Category:Fascist]] [[Category:Xenophobes]] [[Category:Supremacists]] [[Category:Anti-Semetic]] [[Category:KKK Members]]
