Nick Camerota
Nicholas C. Camerota Jr. (born ca. 1950) is a former member and writer for the White nationalist organization National Alliance. Over the years his political views have changed. He is currently a left-wing professor of philosophy and political theory at Springfield Technical Community College in Springfield, Massachusetts.
National Alliance
In 1973 Camerota testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on behalf of the National Youth Alliance—predecessor to the National Alliance--against Henry Kissinger's nomination for Secretary of State.[1]
Camerota was a book and film reviewer for the group’s tabloid newspaper Attack!. One of the books he reviewed was Dr. William Pierce’s novel of white revolution The Turner Diaries. In the review Camerota praised the book's illustrations depicting two of the more dramatic scenes: the destruction of the Washington Post offices and the bombing of the FBI building. David Duke who at the time was a national Ku Klux Klan leader reprinted Camerato’s review in his own newspaper The Crusader.[2]

In 2011 local Democrats gave professor Camerota a Distinguished Labor Leader award.[4]
