• Amy Dickinson: Dear Amy: Is her boyfriend a white nationalist?

  DEAR AMY: I have been dating my boyfriend for about seven months. Recently I was mad at him for canceling plans, and I wanted to see what he was up to, so I Googled him and learned that he has been posting on a white nationalist Web site. It made me sort of sick. I called a mutual friend who was aware that my boyfriend had been interested in white nationalism years ago. When I talked to my boyfriend, he was very defensive. He was angry that I Googled him. I know I invaded his privacy, but whether or not I found it, the forum posts would still be out on the Internet for anyone to read. The things he posted were not necessarily hateful. However, a former leader of the KKK founded the site. My boyfriend is sweet, thoughtful and caring. I love him. He lives with his nephew, who is biracial. He told me that after his nephew was born, he realized he "couldn't hate his own blood." I think he is going through a hard time right now because he is unemployed, and I want to be supportive. On the other hand, I don't want to be with someone who holds white nationalist views. Do you think it is possible for someone with these beliefs to change?
