Extract
Throughout its turbulent history, the Creativity movement has garnered a substantial amount of notoriety. For instance, over the weekend of July 4, 1999, the small racist cult made headlines when a former member embarked on a shooting spree that left two persons dead and nine others injured. Still other sporadic episodes of violence linked to the group preceded and followed that event. In the summer of 1993, the FBI uncovered a plot hatched in California that involved some members of the church who planned to provoke a race war by assassinating prominent Jewish and African American figures. Many of the violence-prone Creators were not church renegades but members in good standing. Under the leadership of Matthew Hale during the late 1990s and early 2000s, the World Church of the Creator was at the center of several free speech controversies that strained communities and divided legal scholars.
Although a marginal movement, Creativity nevertheless exerted a significant influence on the extreme right both in North America and overseas. For example, a band founded by one of its members—RAHOWA—did much to popularize the “white power” music genre in the skinhead subculture. Although the Creativity movement has attracted only a small following, it has had an influence far beyond what its relatively small membership would suggest. In particular, it contributed to the radicalization of the extreme right and its movement away from Christianity.
