William Shatner plays a white racist in this excerpt from the Roger Corman movie "The Intruder." Yes, he can really act. These and other fine clips can be found in the Oxford American Southern DVD 2007 that accompanies its Southern movie issue. Buy the magazine or subscribe at www.oxfordamericanmag.com for the best writing anywhere on Southern culture and life.
More details on the movie can be found here:

And searching through Froogle, Shopzilla, Amazon, etc. should find you copies.....
What's striking is that the racism that Shatner conveys still resonates as, unfortunately, an effective message even to some of YouTube's viewers....
If you want to fight racism and anti-Semitism today, learn more at the Southern Poverty Law Center's website, http://www.splcenter.org/index.jsp
The snake-like evil and rhetorical cunning embodied by Shatner in this role has been followed up in a more sophisticated way by by the GOP's "Southern Strategy," building on themes first promoted by Gov. George Wallace of Alabama before he recanted his racist pandering. For more on the link between the GOP's current policies and its roots in appealing to white racism, see the essential book, "Chain Reaction: The Impact of Race, Rights and Taxes on American Politics" by Thomas and Mary Edsall.
Racism, in a variety of forms, is still alive and well.

Yes, and antisemite, holocaust denier, homophobic, islamophobe etc etc etc
If being called names is enough to shut down those who are prepared to speak out then those people do not have the CONVICTION nor the GUTS to speak on behalf of those who DO. If you believe strongly enough in what you say then meaningless labels will not be enough to quieten you, name calling is the refuge of those who are DISABLED by the truth and those who FEAR the truth getting out.

The stuff he said about the NAACP isn't all wrong. Most of it's founding members were white and Jewish communists or communist sympathizers.

If the people of the town had known what words he was saying, they would have lynched Roger Corman, his brother, AND William Shatner! Actually, the Shat and Corman were saying "Go Cardinals!" "Go Tigers"! See Capt. Kirk's new autobiography "Up Till Now". Amazing how they filmed it in 1961 Charleston, Missouri at the site of a "lynch tree", brave!
