1989: Successful run in special election for Louisiana House seat
In December 1988, Duke changed his political affiliation from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.[22]
In 1988, Republican State Representative Charles Cusimano of Metairie resigned his District 81 seat to become a 24th Judicial District Court judge, and a special election was called early in 1989 to select a successor. Duke entered the race to succeed Cusimano and faced several opponents, including fellow Republicans John Spier Treen, a brother of former Governor David C. Treen; Delton Charles, a school board member; and Roger F. Villere, Jr., who operates Villere's Florist in Metairie. Duke finished first in the primary with 3,995 votes (33.1%).[23] As no one received a majority of the vote in the first round, a runoff election was required between Duke and Treen, who polled 2,277 votes (18.9%) in the first round of balloting. Treen's candidacy was endorsed by U.S. President George H. W. Bush, former President Ronald Reagan, and other notable Republicans,[24] as well as Democrats Victor Bussie (president of the Louisiana AFL-CIO) and Edward J. Steimel (president of the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry and former director of the "good government" think tank, the Public Affairs Research Council). Duke, however, hammered Treen on a statement the latter had made indicating a willingness to entertain higher property taxes, anathema in that suburban district.[25] Duke, with 8,459 votes (50.7%), defeated Treen, who polled 8,232 votes (49.3%).[26] He served in the House from 1989 until 1992.[27]

Leonard Jeffries
Leonard Jeffries Jr. (born January 19, 1937) is an African-American former professor of Black Studies at the City College of New York, part of the City University of New York. He was born and raised in Newark, New Jersey.
Known for his Pan-African Afrocentristviews that the role of African people in history and the accomplishments of African Americans are far more important than commonly held, he has urged that public school syllabi be made less Euro-centric.[2][3]
His claims that Jewish businessmen financed the slave trade and used the movie industry to hurt black people, and that whites are "ice people" while Africans are "sun people," received national publicity in the early 1990s. Jeffries was discharged from his position as chairman of the Black Studies Department at CUNY, leading to a lengthy legal battle[4][5][6]ending in the courts supporting the college's right to remove him from the position due to his incendiary remarks.[7]

Alan Berg
Alan Harrison Berg (January 1, 1934 – June 18, 1984) was a Jewish American attorney and talk radio show host in Denver, Colorado. Berg was known for his mostly liberal, outspoken viewpoints and confrontational interview style.
On the evening of June 18, 1984, Berg was fatally shot in the driveway of his Denver home by members of the white nationalistgroup The Order. His provocative talk show sought to flush out "the anti-Semitism latent in the area's conservative population". He succeeded in provoking members of The Order to engage him in conversations on this talk show and his "often-abrasive on-air persona" ignited the anger of The Order.[1][2]Subsequently, members of The Order involved in the killing were identified as being part of a group planning to kill prominent Jews.[3] Ultimately, two members of The Order, David Lane and Bruce Pierce, were convicted on charges of civil rights violations for their involvement in the case, although neither was ever charged with or convicted of homicide. Lane and Pierce were sentenced to 190 years and 252 years in prison, respectively. Lane died in prison in 2007 and Pierce died in prison in 2010.
Virginia governor’s med school dropped yearbook over racist photos

The head of the medical school whose yearbook sparked controversy after racist photos surfaced on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s page in 1984 got rid of the annual after he found pictures of students in Confederate garb, according to a report on Monday.
Shortly after Provost Richard Homan hired Mekbib Gemeda as vice president of diversity at Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2013, Homan showed him a yearbook containing photos of three white students wearing Confederate uniforms posing in front of a Confederate battle flag, the Washington Post reported.
Homan told Gemeda, who had been an assistant dean for diversity affairs at New York University’s School of Medicine, that the students in the photo had to receive counseling and sensitivity training.
“We need to make sure they understand as physicians that this is offensive to me as well as to future patients and grossly offensive to minority students and African- Americans,” Homan said he told Gemeda. “They’re going to be taking care of everybody. You can’t be wearing incendiary symbols if you’re going to be a young physician and a healer.”
He also put an end to future editions of the yearbook.
But he didn’t go back and review earlier yearbooks to see if they contained similar images.
“In retrospect, that was my error,” said Homan. “I thought because I stopped publication that would have been enough. I think in retrospect, I would have had an audit or review of those.”
Last Friday, conservative website Big League Politics released a photo of a person in blackface and another wearing a Ku Klux Klan robe on Northam’s yearbook page.
Fending off calls to resign, Northam first apologized for the photo on Friday and the following day denied being either person in the picture.
Homan told the newspaper that he has hired Richard Cullen, a former Virginia attorney general, to head up an outside probe into how racist photos ended up in the school’s yearbooks.
