From his farming co-operative, St. Teresa's Village, that he started near Bolling, Alabama, Terminiello pursued his career trying to "preserve a Christian standard in America," but gradually turned to Anti-Semitism and Fascism, from the late 1930s through the 1940s, earning him the nickname "Father Coughlin of the South." A controversial figure, he became increasingly strident in his speeches and publications, questioning how much Pres. Roosevelt knew about Pearl Harbor before the attack, voicing suspicions about Russia and the rise of the Communist party in America, and making incendiary comments about "Jewish international financiers."

He ministered to tenant farmers in Alabama and Florida, started innovative programs involving mobile trailer chapels, conducted radio and television programs (The Pastor's Fireside), founded an experimental community called Saint Teresa's Village, and for a time toured and lectured with Gerald L.K. Smith. In 1946 a Chicago court found him guilty of "making an improper noise, riot, disturbance, breach of the peace or diversion tending to a breach of the peace" because of remarks he made at a Gerald L.K. Smith rally; the supreme Court heard his appeal in 1949 and the justices wrote four separate opinions."

Why Did So Many Intellectuals Refuse to Speak Out?

 Every professor has a title and wants to move from assistant professor to associate professor to full professor, hopefully gaining tenure along the way. In order to do that, they must publish in their profession. That means that they must get through peer review, which is about quality control only in some fantasy land. It is actually about who you know and how much they like you.
