What Hate Groups Say About Being Called Hate Groups
We asked five Philly-area organizations.
By Victor Fiorillo | Philly Post | 4/18/2013
The Southern Poverty Law Center maintains a database of organizations it designates as “hate groups.” To make the list, your group must “have beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics.”

The SPLC identifies 1,007 active hate groups, and you’d probably think that places like Alabama, Arkansas and South Carolina would have far more such organizations than Pennsylvania, right? Nope. According to the SPLC, Pennsylvania boasts 35 active hate groups while those southern states have 30, 23 and 21, respectively.
I reached out to some of the Philadelphia-area organizations on the list to see how they feel about being called hate groups.
The Creativity Alliance
SPLC Designation: Neo-Nazi
Background: The Creativity Alliance is a legally recognized “religion for white people.” According to the organization’s website, “We promote White Civil Rights, White Self-Determination, and White Liberation via 100% legal activism. We do not promote, tolerate nor incite illegal activity.” Members are known as Creators, although detractors have referred to them as Creatards. A Philadelphia chapter was active as early as 2010.
Response: “Despite claims to the contrary, the Creativity Alliance … is not a hate-group,” church leader Reverend Cailen Cambeul emailed me. “We are a religious group centered around a common love for our own people – White people. And indeed, there are many other groups – particularly non White groups who believe as we do concerning their own people.”
“However, because of their legally protected standing in the community deriving from their so-called minority status, it is not considered politically correct to call them a hate group. In fact, to refer to such groups as ‘hate-groups’ is itself often treated as sufficient reason for persecution via the well ingrained system of institutional anti-White racism, i.e. hate-crime laws.”
“True hate-groups like the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center choose to define themselves based on who and what it is they hate… Any claims that the Southern Poverty Law Center and people of that ilk are promoting tolerance and understanding is undermined by their hatred for people who simply are not like them.”

Despite claims to the contrary, the Creativity Alliance incorporating the Church of Creativity is not a hate-group. We are a religious group centred around a common love for our own people – White people. And indeed, there are many other groups – particularly non White groups who believe as we do concerning their own people. However, because of their legally protected standing in the community deriving from their so-called minority status, it is not considered politically correct to call them a hate group. In fact, to refer to such groups as “hate-groups” is itself often treated as sufficient reason for persecution via the well ingrained system of institutional anti-White racism. i.e. hate-crime laws.
The truth is quite the reverse of how the Southern Poverty Law Center would like you to ensure that your readers believe it to be. Calling the Creativity Alliance – which includes the Church of Creativity Philadelphia – a hate-group is at best, misguided, but is an act of deliberate vilification. What we Creators think of other races is but a by-product of, and secondary to, the love we feel for our own race. True hate-groups like the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center choose to define themselves based on who and what it is they hate. Yet they falsely portray us to be a hate-group because we 1. Do not think like as they do, and 2. As self respecting White people, we do not fit in with their vision of a perfect world. Any claims that the Southern Poverty Law Center and people of that ilk are promoting tolerance and understanding is undermined by their hatred for people who simply are not like them.
All we ask is that we be given the opportunity to peacefully win self determination for ourselves, and we have no interests (relevant to this topic) beyond that. By contrast, all the Southern Poverty Law Center want is to facilitate the persecution of those they deem to be politically incorrect by virtue of race, religion, and sexual and/or political persuasion.

… Jefferson’s interests were always for the welfare of the country and its citizens. Even today, though, there are dishonest individuals and various special interests who hate anyone who shares his ideals.Jefferson once said that he was assailed by so many enemies that if he were to answer them all, he would not have time for anything else. Instead, he declared, he would let judgment of him and his record be made by the people.
