The Rise of Racist Pop Music  Lynx and Lamb, two thirteen year old singers from Bakersfield, California are stirring up controversy for their lyrics that praise the Aryan race and refer  to the Holocaust as an "exaggeration." Their music denigrates nonwhites, calling them "mud's." The Daughters of National Vanguard writer and activist April Gaede are breaking new ground by trying to impact the world by creating pro-white pop music.
