June 19, 1999
Dear anti-fascist friends,

     On July 10, Aryan Nations and hooded Klansmen will once
again march in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. At last year's parade, there
were 90 white supremacists and nearly 1000 civil rights
protesters.

     This year, Anti-Racist Action (ARA) and United Front Against
Fascism (UFAF) are forming Coalition Against Nazis (CAN) to
organize a large, orderly, outspoken counter-protest to this
parade. We are mobilizing advocates of civil rights across the
Northwest U.S. and Canada to make sure the world knows Nazis
can't hide in Idaho!

SOME THINK FASCISTS SHOULD BE IGNORED

     Aryan Nations feels at home in Idaho. That's because the
official policy of Coeur d'Alene business leaders, city officials
and the Kootenai County Task Force on Human Relations has been
that Nazis are best ignored.

     Mayor Steve Judy is urging everyone to turn their backs on
the Hitlerites and "avoid the parade," as he did last year. The
Kootenai County Task Force on Human Relations, which in 1998 led
civil rights advocates out-of-state for a rally while the Aryans
took over one of their streets, is hosting a human rights
celebration on July 10, in Coeur d'Alene, but far away from the
fascists' march. This marks a steady, slow movement over the
years by the Task Force to locate its actions closer to the scene
of Nazi activity. Those who have suffered violence by the bigots
already know that the place to be is at the site of the Aryan
Nations parade.

     Business leaders who are heavily dependent on tourism would
just like the publicity created by the civil rights protest to
disappear. After all, who wants to vacation in a state that is
world famous for bigotry and racist violence?

TURN THE SPOTLIGHT ON ARYAN NATIONS

     CAN believes that the extreme right cannot be ignored.
White supremacists multiply when they can convince their recruits
that they are "superior" because of their capacity for violence
and frightening people. The best antidote for their propaganda is
community mobilizations which show that the majority are not
afraid and will stand up for each other and for equality. That's
why we urge the city's civic, religious, and political
spokespeople to call for and participate in a civil rights
protest at the site of the Aryan Nations parade.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP

  -- Share this letter with a friend.
  -- Attend the CAN counter-demonstration in Coeur d'Alene.
  -- Endorse CAN's demonstration.  We want to show support from a
     broad array of people of color, feminist, radical, Jewish,
     labor, environmental, gay and youth organizations.
  -- Sign the pledge below and send it to Coeur d'Alene Mayor
     Judy. Circulate it on the  Internet. Urge others to sign and
     send one as well.
  -- Make a generous donation to help publicize our efforts.
     Checks can be made out to UFAF/Idaho march and mailed to
     5018 Rainier Ave. S., Seattle, WA 98118.

SEE YOU IN COEUR D'ALENE

     This is a good year to take a stand against Aryan Nations.
You'll be standing up for Matthew Shepard, murdered by homophobes
in Wyoming; for James Byrd Jr., killed by the KKK in Texas; for
ARA members Daniel Shersty and Lin "Spit" Newborn, assassinated
by Nazi boneheads in Las Vegas; for your friends, your neighbors
and yourself.

     Be part of the multi-racial solution to the divide and
conquer ideology of the fascists and make history in Idaho this
summer!

Sincerely,
Luma Nichol
UFAF Coordinator

                              * * *

          PLEDGE TO PROTEST THE ARYAN NATIONS PARADE

Dear Mayor Steve Judy and City Council,

     When the Aryan Nations march in Coeur d'Alene, I pledge to
support those who protest their hate-mongering and violence. I
urge you to join the advocates of equality and anti-fascism by
calling for and participating in this counter-protest, and
protecting the constitutional rights to free speech of myself and
others who believe in a multi-racial society cleansed of all
forms of bigotry.

           ARYAN NATIONS LEADERSHIP IN CANADA REVEALED
_________________________________________________________________

                       By David Lethbridge
  http://bethune.w-3productions.com/documents/aryanrevealed.html

                              * * *

     In April 1999, the Canadian headquarters of the white racist
and neo-Nazi Aryan Nations located to Prince George, British
Columbia. At the beginning of May, the fascist organization
established an Internet web site, and began the process of
recruiting. Aryan Nations has a long history of violence and is
among the most significant extreme-right organizations operating
today. Established in the mid-1970s, in Hayden Lake, Idaho, Aryan
Nations brought together within a single organization factions of
the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis, and members of the racist Christian
Identity religion. Aryan Nations/Church of Jesus Christ
Christian, believes that Jews are Satanic, and that people of
color are sub-human.

     The Canadian Aryan Nations website proclaimed its political
platform - the establishment of an Aryan National State - under
which only white Aryans will be allowed citizenship; Jews will be
deported and their assets seized; non-whites will be permitted to
remain within the State, but without citizenship rights and only
under the "custodianship" of an Aryan citizen; all religions
other than Christianity will be forbidden; non-white media will
be prohibited; and Anglo-Saxon, Germanic "common law order"
established. Significantly, only the killing of a White by a
non-White will be a capital offence; no legal provision is made
for the reverse: the murder of non-Whites by Whites. (The full
text of the Aryan Nations political platform can be found in the
Appendix at the end of this report.)

     Links from the Aryan Nations website to other Canadian
organizations included Holocaust-denier Ernst Zundel's
"Zundelsite;" the neo-Nazi Heritage Front based in Toronto, and
the "Freedom Site," home to such far right activists as Paul
Fromm and Marc Lemire, and, until recently, lawyer Doug Christie.
Links to US organizations included: Aryan Nations World
Headquarters; National Alliance; Stormfront; David Duke Report;
Posse Comitatus; Knights of Freedom; The Order; KKK.com; National
Association for the Advancement of White People; White Pride
World Wide; The Nationalist Observer; Nordic Tree of Knowledge;
and the National Socialist Movement.

     An e-mail link on the Canadian Aryan Nations website
connected directly with the Canadian Aryan Nations leader. A
request for information to this e-mail address brought the
following response, which clearly reveals the name of the new
leader:

Dear [name deleted]

     I will send you an information package immediately.
Unfortunately there is no local contact in the [deleted] area at
this time. I will let you know if someone in that area joins the
Aryan Nations. In the mean time just take a look at the info
package I am sending you, and which should arrive shortly, and
let me know if you decide to join. Since I established the
Canadian Website about a week or so ago, I have had a couple of
requests for information packages. I hope the Canadian website
attracts more people to the organization. We need to make White
people aware that we exist, and are working for their long term
interests. Should you decide to join you will be asked to
distribute literature. Now we don't expect you to stand on a
street corner and hand out "Death to Jews" propaganda or anything
like that. What works well I find is placing homemade business
cards bearing the message "Help save the White Race" on them in
books, magazines, phone booths, public washrooms, etc. I will
send you an example of these cards with the info package. They
are easy to distribute, and you won't draw attention to yourself.
Anyway, let me know if you join. Thank you on behalf of our race
for your concern.

2nd Lt. Marty Olsen
CJCC/AN Canadian Leader

The Canadian Aryan Nations Information Package included:

   * A letter from Richard Butler, US Aryan Nations leader,
     inviting the recipient to join the organization and
     subscribe to its publications,
   * A biography of Butler,
   * A statement of Aryan Nations religious beliefs
   * An explanation of Aryan Nations symbols and "heraldry,"
   * A statement of their political platform
   * A list of some books for sale, including Hitler's "Mein
     Kampf," and former US Nazi leader George Lincoln Rockwell's
     "White Power,"
   * A membership application form,
   * And a letter from Marty Olsen, Canadian leader. This letter
     is headed by symbols of the Nazi war eagle carrying the
     swastika in its claws. The text of the letter indicates that
     "the Canadian office has just been established, but with
     your help, we can build the Canadian chapter of the World's
     most notorious Pro-White organization into a commanding
     presence." The letter maintains that "you are not alone. We
     need to reach these others, and transform their lonely
     frustrations into the driving force of a Holy army."

     The Bethune Institute recognizes that swift and early action
produces results. We exposed Marty Olsen through our networks and
through the press, shining a spotlight on his activities. On 26
May, Olsen resigned his position as Aryan Nations leader and
removed his website from the Internet. The fascist organization
was effectively neutralized.

     Aryan Nations is not new to Prince George. In 1991, Tanno
McCurdy, a lumber worker from nearby Valemont, BC, was reportedly
introduced to Aryan Nations in Prince George. He was recruited
into the organization and began to publicly announce that he was
a "pastor" for Aryan Nations. In 1992, McCurdy moved to Creston,
BC, where he served as pastor and organizer for approximately one
year. McCurdy's wife became uncomfortable with his beliefs, and
had a restraining order placed against him. McCurdy returned to
the Prince George area. A little over a year later, McCurdy was
taken into police custody under circumstances which remain
unclear. A judge remanded him to Riverview Psychiatric Hospital
for observation. In the Spring of 1995, McCurdy was found hung in
his room. The death was attributed to suicide, although relatives
remain suspicious.

     Subsequent to McCurdy's departure from Creston in 1993,
former Aryan Nations leader Terry Long moved to town. In late
1995, Charles Scott moved from Kelowna to the Creston area as
Canadian leader of Aryan Nations. Public pressure from
anti-racist organizations forced him to leave within the year.
Scott resigned from Aryan Nations in 1996. In 1997, an individual
known only as Brother John was apparently raised to Aryan Nations
leadership. Richard Butler, the US leader of Aryan Nations
confirmed Brother John's membership, but refused to confirm or
deny his leadership. Brother John claimed a cross-burning on a
mountain near Merritt, BC, allegedly attended by 80 members of
the Aryan Nations and the Ku Klux Klan from both Canada and
Washington State, although no evidence of this event has ever
been established. Since Marty Olsen's recent rise to Aryan
Nations leadership, Brother John has claimed to be working with
White Aryan Resistance, a California-based neo-Nazi group, and to
be involved in "manoeuvers" in the interior of BC. In this
connection, it is significant that W.A.R. literature and
recruitment propaganda have been distributed for the past two
years in the Kelowna area.

betterment of the people by:

  1) requiring all editors, writers, actors, broadcasters, and

     circulation of any material which is not conducive to the
     National welfare.

     rightful owners by deceit and fraud of "Usury Bankers".

     impoverished by fraud.
  6) shall be cleared of the parasites which fatten in the wallow
     of the present political parties; for a race or nation

     killing of any White by a non-White a capitol offense.

     interest-free monetary system based upon a just set of
     weights and measures.

     of our race and culture, and force all nations that want our
     food and technology to buy it with their own wealth and
     accept our authority.
 13) immediately annul all foreign alliances and treaties with
     all non-White nations.

Article (VIII) A ruthless war must be waged against any whose
activities are injurious to the common interest, and that there
be an immediate cessation of dishonoring the nation.

judicial system and all the "laws of men" and establish immediate
return to our own God-ordained, racially inherent Anglo-Saxon,
Germanic Common Law order.

Article (X) In order to implement the foregoing, a renewal of
Racial self-respect in the knowledge of our God's Eternal Natural
Law Order and the will to return to it with heart, soul, and mind
is imperative.
