Neo-Nazis living in especially east German states have managed to develop grassroots organizations which are hard for authorities to detect.

Neighborhood groups, cultural and sports clubs and information centers have sprung up and are used to brainwash people with Nazi propaganda.

Other programs include children and street festivals, traditional German dancing, mountain hiking and skiing trips as well summer camps.

As part of this strategy, women have become ardent campaigners for neo-Nazi causes, forming their own “Kameradschaft” networks to promote “racial purity” and National Socialism.

Named after clubs formed by Nazi war veterans, these networks provide a forum for women to meet every week and engage in ideological training and political organizing.

While far-right attacks are no longer making headlines in the press, neo-Nazi campaigners are skillfully displaying their friendly image in the media and are gaining more and more supporters.
