Dad Tells White Nationalist Son to ‘Renounce the Hate’ in Heartbreaking Open Letter

What would you do if your child grew up to be a white supremacist? North Dakota dad Pearce Tefft penned a letter to his son Peter Tefft to condemn his decision to be part of the Charlottesville white nationalist rally, asking his “prodigal son” to leave behind his repugnant beliefs and come home.

“I have shared my home and hearth with friends and acquaintances of every race, gender and creed,” Pearce Tefft wrote. “I have taught all of my children that all men and women are created equal. That we must love each other all the same. Evidently Peter has chosen to unlearn these lessons, much to my and his family’s heartbreak and distress.”

On radio Wednesday, Glenn read the father’s heartbreaking letter and played a startling clip of white nationalists chanting “Jews will not replace us” at the Charlottesville rally over the weekend. What do you do if your own friends and family embrace these racist views that rightly horrify most people?

“What is happening?” Glenn asked incredulously. “Listen to the chants of what these people are saying.”
