Black Sun Book Club - All Parts
A chapter-by-chapter reading of Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism, and the Politics of Identity by Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke, the definitive history of how Nazism survived after 1945 by becoming a religious system.
This book club traces the ideas, figures, and movements that built post-war neo-Nazism and shows how their symbolism and theology are being laundered into online culture today. Led by Will Spencer, with live discussion from paid subscribers.
The Book Club is presented in six parts. Part VI is coming soon.

PART V
Chapter 13: Nordic Racial Paganism
A convicted murderer wrote the most recognized white supremacist slogan in the world from a prison cell, rewrote the Beatitudes with Thor’s hammer, and ran a publishing house that distributed esoteric Hitlerist theology worldwide. His ideas are now showing up on Christmas ornaments in Reformed Christian circles. And pastors are laughing in the replies.
