Wesley A. Swift
Wesley A. Swift (1913–1970) was a Methodist minister from Southern California, whose views were described as racist and white supremacist by his political opponents.[1] In the 1940s, Swift started his own church, later known as the Church of Jesus Christ Christian.
He was active in far right-wing groups, including the Ku Klux Klan, and developed a close friendship with prominent postwar anti-Semite, Gerald L. K. Smith.[2] Because of the activities of Swift and associates such as Bertrand Comparet and San Jacinto Capt, some Christian Identity movements increasingly became linked with extreme right-wing ideologies. Richard Girnt Butler, founder of the Aryan Nations, was a close California disciple of Swift.[2]
