Racists Try To Blend In

Item: White supremacists try to polish image/Becky Shay, Billings Gazette

More Info: Kyle Anderson blends in with the crowd of businessmen and students sitting in a Billings coffee shop. His dark hair is cropped short. He wears a burgundy dress shirt and dark slacks. The only thing that distinguishes him as a "Creator," a member of a group advocating an all-white society, is the pin with a large "W" on his black silk tie. The W stands for white. Presenting himself as professional is part of being a member of the elite white race, said the 19-year-old Anderson.

Question (w/tongue firmly cheeked): Let's say you are a public relations expert without scruples. How would you go about polishing the image of white supremacists who want to blend into society?
