The Concerning Rhetoric of White Power Music
White Power Music is a genre of music to promote and encourage white supremacy.

White power music is music that promotes white nationalism. It encompasses various music styles, including rock, country, and folk. Ethnomusicologist Benjamin R. Teitelbaum argues that white power music "can be defined by lyrics that demonize variously conceived non-whites and advocate racial pride and solidarity. Most often, however, insiders conceptualized white power music as combining those themes with pounding rhythms and a charging punk or metal-based accompaniment." Genres include Nazi punk, Rock Against Communism, National Socialist black metal, and fashwave.

Where is White Power Music?
White power music is prevalent among Northern European countries such as Norway, Sweden, Germany, and Great Britain. An article from the Southern Poverty Law Center explained a White Power Music Festival that took place in Atlanta in 2000. The event brought 500 White supremacists to a festival to host a white power music festival that had people from all over the world, from countries such as Austria, Canada, France, Netherlands, Ireland, Spain, and the United States. Though white supremacists come from all over the world, many of them originate from European nations specifically Western and Central Europe. A theme that has continued since the ruling of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Regime from the 1930s to the 1950s.

Pushing Back on White Power Music
Popular music streaming platform Spotify has taken the initiative to get rid of white power music by reading and understanding the lyrics of these songs and because they are particular about their language and standpoint on other races and religions. (this is new and I plan to add more to this).
