Aryan Nations  

Definition

  • Aryan Nations (AN, aka Church of Jesus Christ Christian) was one of the most prominent Christian Identity–based hate groups active in the 1980s. During that decade, AN developed a strong network comprising neo-Nazi, skinhead, Ku Klux Klan (KKK), white supremacist, and militia groups, many of which congregated and networked at the AN compound in Hayden Lake, Idaho.
