Frazier Glenn Miller  

Definition

  • During the 1980s, Frazier Glenn Miller (aka F. Glenn Miller Jr.; Glenn Miller), a former U.S. army officer, was the leader of the Carolina Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (CKKKK) and, later, the White Patriot Party (WPP), a paramilitary offshoot of the CKKKK. Miller was discharged from the army in 1979 for distributing racist literature. In November of that year, he allegedly helped instigate an attack on an anti-Klan rally and march in Greensboro, North Carolina, in which five demonstrators, all members of the Communist Workers Party, were gunned down by Klansmen and American Nazis.
