The next season of Extremely American is ambitious, urgent, and already underway.
Host Heath Druzin is reporting across the country on a neo-Nazi group that terrorized the West in the 1980s — and the modern white supremacist networks its members helped grow.
To make this season happen, we’re asking listeners to become partners in the reporting – we're counting on your support to get this season over the finish line.

What does it mean to be an American? There’s no one way. At NPR, we think of the American identity as a story - one that's always being rewritten by the people who live it. The American Storytelling collection gathers stories from local stations across the NPR Network - from small town struggles, to natural phenomena, to the intricate histories that build the constantly-evolving tale of our nation. These are our biggest little-known shows. Find them in the American Storytelling channel on Apple Podcasts or on the NPR App.

Heath and Jimmy travel to the Creation Museum, a kind of theme park dedicated to the idea that the Bible's creation story is literally true and that the earth is 6,000 years old. So-called young earth creationism is a fundamental idea in Christian nationalism and one that could threaten the very foundations of scientific research if it ever becomes government policy.
