Title: 2019-12-14 Montana: "Transforming Hate" Making Sure Little Kiddies Hate Whitey
Post by: Rev.Cambeul on Sat 21 Dec 2019
The destruction of thousands of the Church of Creativity's Holy Books. The glorification of this so-called art exhibition by the anti-White world at large grants the right to every Creator mutilate and destroy any and all religious texts and other religious paraphernalia with impunity.

Simply put: If Creators are not protected by Religious Vilification Hate-Crime Laws, then Creators are not beholden to the same laws as other men.

Excerpt: "What does justice mean?" asked Josie Anderson, a second-grade student at Pioneer Elementary, during a presentation by Art Mobile of Montana.

"It means taking care of the bad," replied first-grader Alexzander Jones. "Then everyone is happy."

Shannon Driscoll, Art Mobile's teaching artist, shared words like "justice," "transformation," "empathy," and "equality" to help students understand the works of art she brought for display on Thursday at the small school northeast of Billings.

Fifteen pieces of artwork were on display, including Missoula artist Stephen Glueckert's "Smoke in Mirrors," a contraption built atop volumes of books espousing ideas of racism and anti-Semitism. In other artwork, pages of the books were folded into paper cranes or transformed into something wholly new. Thirteen books stood upright, covered with hats hand-knit by Billings artist Jane Waggoner Deschner.

"All these books started out being books filled with lots of hate," said Driscoll. "These artist took it upon themselves to change that."

The books were authored by Ben Klassen, a white supremacist and founder of the Church of the Creator. In 2004, a former "Creator" member offered 4,100 copies of Klassen's anti-Semitic, racist manifestos to the Montana Human Rights Network for $300.

With 13 titles such as "The White Man's Bible," Klassen's texts called for a racial holy war. Members of the Montana Human Rights Network, which formed in the 1990s in response to white supremacist groups organizing in Montana, wondered what could be done — besides burning the books — to ensure the literature doesn't get disseminated.

"Speaking Volumes: Transforming Hate," a responsive art exhibition, became the answer. Artists across the nation were asked to transform the books. The exhibition, curated by Katie Knight of Helena, opened in 2008 at the Holter Museum of Art. About one third of the participants were Montana artists.

In transforming the books, many artists told their own stories, like Clarissa Sligh, who folded origami peace cranes from pages of the books. At age 15, Sligh was the lead plaintiff in a 1955 school desegregation case in Virginia. As a witness to her uncle's lynching, Sligh has also presented work at the Brooklyn Museum of Art.

Knight describes Sligh as one of her heroes. "When you listen to someone's story, whether it's symbolic or visual, or a verbal narrative, you gain hopefully more empathy and understanding and they become humanized," Knight said.

Since opening in Helena, the exhibition has traveled from coast to coast, appearing in 27 museums and galleries.
