future Republican Secretary of State and Governor Tom McCall dug into Huss’s background and wrote a memo describing Huss as “a fascist.” At least two Portland residents who testified at the televised hearing, a Finnish trade unionist and an African-American minister, explicitly compared Huss’s organization to that of the Nazis. Considering that as a young man in the 1930s Huss had likely been involved with a pro-Hitler group called “the Silver Shirts,” what may have sounded like hyperbole to some viewers in 1961 was more on the mark than anyone at the time (other than Huss and his friends who shared his Silver Shirt ties) could have known.

I am glad that not everyone will forever associate this nice annual parade with the initiation of PDX's nightmarish experience with the fascists & neo-Nazis of Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys (etc), as well as Patriot Prayer nazi Jeremy Christian's murders on the MAX. because I definitely will. https://www.oregonlive.com/news/2024/04/82nd-avenue-of-roses-parade-celebrates-community.html
