Background
The Creativity Movement is a white separatist group, founded in 1973, that promotes its own “Pro-White” religion. The group was formerly known as the World Church of the Creator, although it is an atheistic organization.
Displayed prominently on the front page of the website is the founder, Ben Klassen’s, Call to Action, which states “If the evil forces led by the Jews are victorious, future humanity is doomed to tens of thousands of years of slavery, misery, and bestiality…”
The Creativity Movement’s logo is a W, for “White Race”, topped by a crown, for their “Aristocratic position in Nature’s scheme of things”, and a halo, for their race being “Unique and Sacred”.
Themes
The website hosts a forum for members and provides world news, articles by Movement members, and its own books and literature for free. One of the books is titled “RAHOWA! This Planet is All Ours.” RaHoWa is a short form used by white supremacists for Racial Holy War.
The website also proudly displays its “5 Fundamental Beliefs” and “Sixteen Commandments”, the third of which is “Remember that the inferior mud races are our deadly enemies, and the most dangerous of all is the Jewish race.”
Ownership
The Creativity Movement was founded by Ben Klassen but was later taken over by Matt Hale. Hale was incarcerated in 2004 after plotting to murder a federal judge.
Scope
Since its founding, members of the Creativity Movement have been convicted for more than 17 acts of racial violence. The Movement gained notoriety when one of its members, Benjamin Smith, went on a shooting spree on the 1999 July 4th weekend that killed two people and wounded nine, including six Orthodox Jews.
In the last three months, page views of the Movement’s website have gone up 290% and its forum has over 200 members.
The website links to other Creativity Movement websites all over the world, including in Croatia, Germany, Iceland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, and Venezuela. Along with these countries, it also has members in England and Australia.
