After finishing high school he enrolled in a community college. While in the community college he decided to run for a seat in the Republican committee. At 19 years old he won a seat in the Republican committee of 111 seats, with about 60 percent of the votes. The committee refused to seat him because he failed to take his oath.

Beliefs[edit]
According to Derek Black beliefs, life as we know it had taken place within the insular world of white nationalism where there was never doubt about what whiteness could mean in the U.S. Derek grew up knowing that America was a place reserved for white Europeans and sooner or later everybody else would have to leave. This is due to how he was trying to avoid the views that his father as a white supremacist. While being a white nationalist, Derek black didn’t believe that white races were above all the others but Instead thought that their race shouldn’t be surrounded by others. He’s known for his suspicion of other races, the U.S. government, tap water, and pop culture. He was pulled out of a public school at the end of third grade by his parents because they heard his black teacher say “ain’t”. At age 10, he stated "it is a shame how many White minds are wasted in that system”[1]. He was also pro-choice on abortion, but he was against the death penalty. He had no affiliation, nor did he believe the KKK or Nazism or white supremacy. Derek Black tried to let people know that there was a difference between white nationalism and white supremacy. Although he was mainly concerned with “massive immigration and forced integration” and how it would lead to white genocide [1]. One of his main beliefs was that he respected rights of all races but felt that they would be better off in its own homeland, not living together.
In May of 2013, Derek black started to befriend several Jewish people. He had realized that his beliefs were wrong. After attending multiple gathering on Friday's nights with Jewish friends. So, Derek made a public statement stating how he grew up in a neighborhood that was founded on white nationalism. While members of his family were white nationalists, his father who he respected greatly was one as well. Derek was very hesitant to “drive a wedge” in between the relationship of not only him and his family members but also him and his father[1] [2] [3] https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2018/12/04/how-derek-black-went-golden-boy-white-nationalism-outspoken-critic/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.24a4e08df77a.
When his father, Donald Black, saw this he began to distance himself from Derek not being sure on whether to defend him or to shun him completely. Even though Derek tried convincing his father on his beliefs, he failed[1] [2] [3] https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2018/12/04/how-derek-black-went-golden-boy-white-nationalism-outspoken-critic/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.24a4e08df77a.

He implemented this same idea on his interviews, Stormfront posts and during his speech at the conference in Memphis.
