The Lyle Brothers collection contains a wide assortment of right-wing material. It contains nativist, fundamentalist, anti-semitic, racist, Libertarian and Republican literature and propaganda. It is largely focused against Jews, Communists, Liberals, the Federal Reserve, the National Association for Colored People, the United Nations, the Soviet Union, Communist China, and Latin American liberation movements. In cultural terms it is opposed to income taxes, modern art, progressive education, sex education, drugs, floridization of water, national health care, welfare for the poor, unions, government regulation of corporations and the media. The material supports a strong military, small businesses, corporate capitalism, the war on drugs, and fundamentalist family and moral values. The John Birch Society, Aryan Nations and Don Bell materials are fairly representative.
