Kingdom Identity Ministries

Kingdom Identity Ministries (KIM) is a Christian Identity outreach ministry based in Harrison, Arkansas, which advocates racism, antisemitism, and the execution of homosexuals.[1][2] Its website states that it "is an outreach ministry to God's chosen race (true Israel, the White, European peoples)".[3] It primarily functions as a distributor of Identity-oriented books, tracts, and audiotapes. KIM also offers correspondence courses through its American Institute of Theology and produces a radio program, Herald of Truth, which is broadcast on shortwave, satellite, and Internet radio. The Southern Poverty Law Center considers it "the largest supplier in existence of materials related to Christian Identity".[4]

Kingdom Identity Ministries was founded in 1982 by Mike Hallimore and owns the copyright to a number of works on Christian Identity by Bertrand Comparet and Wesley Swift.[4]

In addition to Christian Identity material, KIM also circulates white supremacist material, including sending white supremacist pamphlets to rural communities in Pennsylvania and funding the distribution of a white-power CD in 2007.[4]
