White Supermacists and others are expected to descend on the town of Leith, North Dakota to show support for a man who wants to transform the town into w whites only place, according to CNN Edition.
Paul Craig Cobb wants to transform Leith, a town with a population of 24, into a community that mirrors his white supremacist views. Cobb said he envisions Leith as a place where white nationalist banners will be flown, where white culture would be celebrated, and where minorities would not be welcome.
His white power takeover would begin with getting political control over Leith. But his ambitions go way beyond this one small town. Cobb said he wants this movement to spread to other communities, other nations, even around the world, though he does not explain how he would do this.
"I don't understand why all the different other people don't say 'whitey' is pretty darn nice and clever," Cobb said. "There are many organizations in which whites have to support other cultures. Where is the organization of people from around the world that says let's keep these white people? They're pretty darn good, all in all."
Cobb is one of the best known white supremacists in North America, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. "He believes whites should be separate from other races," said Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center.
"He's also an anti-semite, a raging anti-semite. And he's a member of the creativity religion, which is a religion that literally worships the Aryan man instead of God," Beirich further stated. Cobb's quest to change Leith began about two years ago with the purchase of property. Leith, a quiet town where you can hear the crickets chirp and the grain elevator run, is 70 miles southwest of Bismarck.
