Kingdom Identity Ministries

Kingdom Identity Ministries (KIM) is a Christian Identity outreach ministry based in Harrison, Arkansas, which advocates racism, anti-Semitism 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 functions primarily as a distributor of Identity-oriented books, tracts and audiotapes. KIM also offers correspondence courses through its American Institute of Theology and it 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]

It was founded in 1982 by Mike Hallimore and owns the copyright to a number of works on Christian Identity by Bertran Camparet and Wesley Swift.[4]

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