One year ago today: I published my book, Look Away, about a plot to rid Germany of immigrants. Sadly, in the U.S. and across the world, it's as timely now as ever before. bit.ly/LookAwayBook

I'm on the REDHANDED podcast talking about my new book, WHITE TERROR (aka Look Away) https://bit.ly/RedhandedWhiteTerror "Jacob's incredible book, White Terror, tells the story of how three rebellious teachers grew into white supremacist, neo-Nazi terrorists--and far right violence in Europe" today.

Many thanks to Josh Hammer for the incredible review! "Kushner brilliantly unpacks the sordid dealings between German intelligence and the neo-Nazi underground ... (and) counters persuasively that it may have led to the worst murder spree in Germany’s postwar history. — The New York Review of Books
