Separatists

There are separatist and nationalist movements all over the world. These are people wanting their own homeland. Some separatists are willing to commit crimes to secure this independence.

Separatist groups within the U.S. include:

• White Supremacists - want to establish a homeland using five states
   in the U.S. northwest

• Black Separatists/Nationalists – want reparations for past slave labor
   and have suggested a homeland made up of five southern states

• Puerto Rican Nationalists - demand an independent Puerto Rico

• American Indian Activists - push for a return of "stolen" lands
   and self-determination

• Neo-Confederates - want to again secede from the Union

• Movements in some states (i.e. Hawaii or Texas) claim that their states
   were never properly/legally brought into the union.
