Alt-right The alt-right, or alternative right, is a loosely defined group of people with far-right ideologies who reject mainstream conservatism in favor of white nationalism. White supremacist Richard Spencer initially promoted the term in 2010 in reference to a movement centered on white nationalism, and did so according to the "Associated Press" to disguise overt racism, white supremacism, neo-fascism, and neo-Nazism. The term drew considerable media attention and controversy during and after the 2016 US presidential election.
