CEP-PoE Webinar: Hiding In Plain Sight – The Transnational Right-Wing
Extremist Active Club Network


(New York, N.Y. / Washington, D.C.) – The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) and
the Program on Extremism (PoE) at George Washington University invite you to a
webinar on Friday, September 22, 2023, focusing on the analysis of the
potential threats affiliated with the largest transnational right-wing
extremist (RWE/REMVE) combat sports network, called Active Clubs.



Three leading experts will explore the objectives, strategies, strengths, and
weaknesses of this network, which continues to grow quickly and has spread from
the U.S. to Canada and to at least twelve countries in Europe.



The overall objective of the Active Club White Supremacy 3.0 strategy is the
creation of a shadow or stand-by army of trained and capable RWE/REMVE
individuals who can be activated when the need for coordinated violent action
on a larger scale arises. If Active Clubs are allowed to continue to operate
and multiply, the likelihood for targeted political violence and terrorism by
their members against supposed enemies of the “white race” (e.g., Jews, People
of Color, Muslims, and LGTBQI+ people) will increase.



Following the event, CEP will publish a research report on the issue set.



The webinar will be conducted in English via Zoom.
