Aryan Nations (AN) is an American anti-government, anti-Semitic white nationalist group. It was founded in the 1970s by Richard Girnt Butler as an arm of the Christian Identity group Church of Jesus Christ-Christian. The group had a network of prison gang members called the Aryan Brotherhood.
Its origin lies in the teachings of Wesley Swift , a significant figure in the early Christian Identity movement. Swift combined British Israelism, extreme anti-Semitism, and political militancy. He founded his own church in California in the mid 1940s where he could preach this ideology. In addition, he had a daily radio broadcast in California during the 1950s and 60s. In 1957, the name of his church was changed to the Church of Jesus Christ-Christian, which is used today by Aryan Nations churches.
