In His Own Words:
"When the Negro was under the natural discipline of white authority, white people were safe from the abuse and violence of the Negro, but the Negro was also safe from himself."
听鈥 Editorial in The Torch, April 1990

"Dats when A'hs does what A'hs want. Dat's also when A'hs kin have da white girls, and da free food stamps."
The White Patriot, 1991

鈥淢y name鈥檚 not Paul Revere, but one of the things I鈥檇 be saying if I was on that stallion in 1775, but I鈥檓 not, so in 2009, the Mexicans are coming, the Mexicans are coming!鈥

Background:
Thomas Robb, born in Detroit, was raised in Tucson, Ariz., before attending college in Colorado. He is the pastor of the Christian Revival Center in Bergman, Ark., where he espouses the racist and anti-Semitic Christian Identity theology. According to the Thomas Robb Ministries website, 鈥淲e believe that the Anglo Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian, and kindred people are THE people of the Bible 鈥 God鈥檚 separated and anointed Israel.鈥 The statement goes on to declare, 鈥淥ur people must 鈥 resist the call of Satan, which the Bible says will come disguised as light and love 鈥 brotherly 鈥 interracial love.鈥

With the departure of longtime Klan leader in the 1980s, Robb took over leadership of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Much like Duke, Robb favored a more 鈥渕ainstream鈥 approach to managing the Klan. However, this did not stop him and from attempting to gain access to the Southern Poverty Law Center鈥檚 office in 1984 while posing as documentary filmmakers. This occurred just a year after three Klansmen came out of the sewers to torch the 人兽性交鈥檚 office, causing extensive damage. The Klansmen were recognized and refused entry.听

Rather than the traditional title of 鈥淚mperial Wizard,鈥 Robb opted for the less-charged 鈥淣ational Director.鈥 He took up Duke鈥檚 strategy of using the Internet to reach a wider audience, giving the false appearance of an explosion in Klan growth. Robb also attempted to start a family-oriented Klan camp, aimed at creating a 鈥渒inder, gentler鈥 image for the Klan. In a move that angered many Klan constituents, he also abandoned traditional initiation procedures in favor of a simple mail-in fee that earned applicants booklets and tests, allowing them to move through the ranks by paying for promotions.

Like Duke, Robb took strong control of the Klan鈥檚 finances. He was eventually accused of embezzling hotline proceeds and a $20,000 anonymous donation, resulting in a split with several high-ranking members. Ed Novak, the founder of the Chicago-based Federation of Klans, was one of those who left, taking with him almost one third of Robb鈥檚 membership. Other factions that split with Robb鈥檚 Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, including one Michigan-based group, immediately returned to more 鈥渢raditional鈥 practices, donning the notorious white robes and hoods.听

Robb has since renamed the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan as 鈥渢he Knights Party鈥 in a further attempt to move the group closer to the mainstream. The ranks of this newly titled group have grown some as other struggling groups, like organization, have been forced to merge in order to continue surviving. Roper鈥檚 decision to fold his group into Robb鈥檚 can be explained partly by the geographic proximity between the White Revolution鈥檚 Russellville, Ark., headquarters and Robb鈥檚 home 70 miles away in Harrison, Ark.

Robb, more than just a Christian Identity preacher, has spoken at events such as the 鈥淲orld Congress鈥 鈥 an annual gathering of hate group leaders that has included notable extremist figures such as the late founder and leader of the National Alliance , former Texas Klan leader Louis Beam, of the Aryan Resistance, late Michigan Klansman Bob Miles, and James Wickstrom and Jack Mohr of the Posse Comitatus. He has appeared on show on the now-defunct white supremacist Voice of Reason Radio Network. Robb has also been a regular contributor to the white supremacist web forum Stormfront, where he regularly posts a weekly 鈥淪unday Sermon.鈥

In the aftermath of President Obama鈥檚 election in 2008, Robb characterized what he saw as a 鈥渞ace war 鈥 between our people, who I see as the rightful owners and leaders of this great country, and their people, the blacks.鈥

On the summer of 2013, Robb announced he would hold a weeklong camp in August called the Soldiers of the Cross Training Institute in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. The 鈥淜lan kamp,鈥 hosted on Robb鈥檚 property, was aimed at instilling 鈥渢he tools to become actively involved鈥 in the 鈥渟truggle for our racial redemption鈥 in both young and old 鈥渃ampers.鈥 The 鈥渇aculty鈥 included white supremacist Paul Fromm and Billy Roper, the neo-Nazi former head of the White Revolution organization.听
