The John Birch Society: A Conspiracy of the Fearful

By The Jewish War Veterans of the U.S.A.
n.p.: The Jewish War Veterans of the U.S.A., 1965. Near Fine. [n.p]: The Jewish War Veterans of the U.S.A, 1965. Self-wrapped staple bound pamphlet (22cm); 12pp. Wrappers gently rubbed at margins, but overall a Near Fine example with bright clean pages. Curiously paired with an opposition (read: American Nazi party) flyer for the 1965 Virginian gubernatorial election, loosely laid in.

The Jewish War Veterans of the U.S.A. were known for their advocacy for veterans, women, and children, as well as their vocal resistance of alt-right groups. This pamphlet explains what the John Birch Society is and what they stand for, as well as ways to oppose them and their politicians. The flyer laid in is for American Nazi Party candidate in 1965, George Lincoln Rockwell, who claims to be the "Only Candidate for Governor who will work for the interest of the White People of Virginia." He lost horrifically (thank goodness) to the Democratic candidate, Mills E. Godwin, receiving 5,700 votes to Godwin's 270,000. Even the John Birch Society wanted nothing to do with him after he made anti-semitic statements.
