Rockwell: Good. Just so we both know where we stand, I’d like to make something else crystal clear before we begin. I’m going to be honest and direct with you. You’re here in your professional capacity; I’m here in my professional capacity. While here, you’ll be treated well — but I see you’re a black interviewer. It’s nothing personal, but I want you to understand that I don’t mix with your kind, and we call your race “niggers.”
PLAYBOY: I’ve been called “nigger” many times, Commander, but this is the first time I’m being paid for it. So you go right ahead. What have you got against us “niggers”?

Playboy - Interview - George Lincoln Rockwell
In 1966, African-American journalist Alex Haley bravely walked into the headquarters of the American Nazi Party and interviewed their leader, who kept a loaded pistol on the arm of his chair for the duration of the interview.
I can’t imagine the guts it took for Haley to complete the interview. I don’t know any of his other work yet, but I sure as hell intend to find out about it.
