The White Power Movement is a generic term for anyone who follows the racist ideologies of white supremacy, or the belief that whites are superior to other races and therefore should be dominant over them. These people vary in manifestation from violent skinheads to seemingly decent preachers and businessmen. These groups and people are well known for its direct opposition to the Civil Rights Movement. Many white power groups and white supremacists also tend to be anti-semitic, homophobic, and Islamophobic as well, but not always.
Although it is still existing in most countries, many nations have cracked-down on hate crimes. Its beliefs include their opinion that African-Americans and other races are inferior to theirs.
