Today on Crime & Entertainment we speak with Frank Meeink. The movie American History X is loosely based on Frank's life which he details in this interview. Frank grew up in South Philly and grew up in an Irish/Italian household. Eventually he went to live with his dad in South Philly in an all black neighborhood and got into numerous fights where he was one of the only few white kids. He eventually went and visited his family in rural Lancaster County. He learned Neo Nazi beliefs and ended up become a leader of the national skinhead movement.  He quickly rose through the ranks and became a high ranking member of this movement. Eventually this would land him in prison and eventually after his release he would turn away from this life style and become an activist against it.
