In it, she recounts her deep dive into the digital white supremacist movement while assuming multiple identities, including an "involuntarily celibate" virgin, the "Aryan Queen," and a bachelorette from Iowa looking for love on a whites-only dating site.
In order to look as deeply as I could into the world of white nationalism, I had to leave my own identity behind as often as not.
