Dear Friend,
We are sending our Clarion subscribers another important video -- “I Had the Fear - Lauren Manning’s Story.”
Born in Toronto, Laura grew up with very low self-esteem and a fear of being left alone. Those factors were enough for her white supremacist friends to be able to groom her and radicalize her.
She became very disillusioned with her group--a violent cult with no real ideology other than blind hate.
One night she encountered a fight that could have ended in her murder. Passersby protected her from the violence and, despite her Nazi tattoos, treated her with respect and care.
That was a significant turning point. She decided to leave the group and instead fight for tolerance and challenge hate.
