The Empire Never Ended

55: Swift & Gale - Christian Identity Rangers


Listen Later

Ever wish the Bible had more space aliens and insane racism in it? Well, Fritz has the religion for you! TENE takes Christian Identity head-on from their split with the British Israelite movement through super racist ancient aliens to some of the earliest participants in the American militia movement. Christian Identity fuses apocalyptic militarism with the belief that Jewish people are literal genetic descendants of Satan. Swift and Gale were key figures in Southern California's bustling white supremacist scene from the end of World War II and, as you might expect, total freaks. Also, Fritz throws in some whacky racist theology for good measure!

Recommended texts: Religion and the Racist Right (1994) by Michael Barkun Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism and the Politics of Identity (2002) Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke

This is The Empire Never Ended, the Antifascist Amerikanski-Balkan podcast about (neo) fascist terror, the (deep) state and the alienation, nihilism and desperation produced by the capitalist system. And how to get rid of all that.
