IS IT correct to find parallels between violent white supremacism and neo-Nazism on one hand  and the nihilist fury of ultra-militant Islam on the other? A Franco-American scholar   Scott Atran   is convinced that these deadly phenomena are two sides of the same coin. Unless people grasp that point   he  thinks  our ability to cope with either scourge may be limited.
Of course there are superficial resemblances which anyone can see. In August  when a fanatic drove his car into a group of liberal  anti-racist protesters in Charlottesville  Virginia   he  was copying a tactic that had already been used by self-styled warriors for Islam in at least four European countries.
But Mr Atran  who holds academic posts in Britain  France and America  sees deeper resemblances.  He  makes the point in an essay for Aeon   a forum for elaborate intellectual arguments  drawing on a series of  his  own academic investigations.
In  his  view  both kinds of fanaticism reflect both the failure of the liberal democratic order to inspire anyone to defend it  and the insidious attractiveness of ideologies which challenge that order. What makes these ideologies appealing is not their content but the strong collective identity they offer. They create peer groups that promise their own members such admiration that it can seem like sufficient reason to lay down oneâs life. By contrast  surveys suggest that very few people  these days  feel inclined to give up their lives for democracy.

The Pretenders surge through their 1981 track "Talk of the Town" in a preview of their upcoming Austin City Limits episode  which premieres Saturday  October 14th.  Chrissie Hynde and James Walbourne  form a wall of rippling guitar chords on the dreamy Pretenders II track.
In another exclusive clip of  their  debut ACL appearance  the quintet perform "I Hate Myself" from their Dan Auerbach-produced 2016 LP  Alone. Over a static drum beat  moaning pedal-steel and woozy tremolo bar drone   Hynde  berates  herself  by sneering the song title over and over.

 Hynde  also praised Auerbach for his production and laid-back spirit during the recording of Alone. "I see it as a Dan Auerbach album "  she  admitted. "In my heart of hearts  that's how I see that album. It's more like I guested with him. But of course I'm very happy to take the credit. He's the producer  and that's just the way it has to be."

Itâs at a bereavement therapy group that meets on the Southwest Side of Chicago  far from her North Shore home  where  Tina Nelson  has found some measure of comfort and validation as  she  copes with  her  sonâs sudden and violent death.
 Grant Nelson  was killed in May while driving for ride-share company Uber. A 16-year-old Chicago girl is accused of attacking him with a knife and a machete that authorities say she had just stolen from a Walmart in Skokie.
Since July   Tina Nelson  has been attending a support group for crime victimsâ families thatâs held each month at the Leighton Criminal Court Building in Chicago.
 Tina Nelson  had experienced other losses in recent years. A sister-in-law died unexpectedly of a brain aneurysm. And just a month before Grant  another sister-in-law lost a âtorturous battle with cancer.â
But her sonâs death is âa different sphere of experience â  Tina Nelson  said.
âYou have to reconcile the fact that someone chose to take the life of your loved one â said  Tina âs daughter Alex Nelson  who also has been attending the bereavement group. âIt is not a freak accident or illness. Itâs that someone made a conscious choice  and that adds to the grieving process. You are not just mourning the person. You are trying to reconcile the feelings about (the accused)  whether it be forgiveness or anger.â
 Tina  and Alex Nelson spoke with the Tribune on Dec. 4 â what would have been Grantâs 35th birthday â about how the family is coping.  Tina Nelson  describes how  she  finds  herself  daily longing to talk to  him   particularly to tell  him  things  she  knows  he âd find funny.  She  demonstrated how  he  would throw  his  head back when  he  laughed.
 He  had âthe best laugh â  she  said. âI miss  his  laugh.â
â It  has been a lifesaver for my husband and myself â she said. â It âs the camaraderie. You get to know people that walked in your shoes. And no one looks down at you. They are all sympathetic.â
 Tina Nelson  said  she âs found the bereavement group so helpful that  she  was moved to write to County Board President Toni Preckwinkle to tell  her . Preckwinkle wrote  her  back to explain that services for the victims of violent crimes and their families are largely supported by federal grant programs.
