A “Who’s Who” of Global Far Right Extremists Gathered to Share Plans for Whites-Only Communities, by GPAHE – 13 February 2026

From Global Project Against Hate and Extremism

White supremacist leaders from France, Germany, South Africa, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States gathered on February 7, 2026, to discuss their efforts to build whites-only communities around the world.

The conference was hosted by Eric Orwoll, the founder and leader of “Return to the Land” (RTTL), a self-described “intentional community” that owns property in Arkansas. RTTL only allows people of European descent, who they vet to assure their white nationalist views, to build homes on the community’s land.

Billed as a rustic rejection of liberalism and multiculturalism and an attempt to preserve European society, Orwoll has used media attention to network and promote his project across the international far right. His second annual online “Intentional Community Conference” brought together speakers from multiple neo-Nazi groups, racist pagan networks, Christian sects that believe the Jews are the children of the devil, and other extremists, to talk about their community projects to keep anyone who is not white out.

“[A]ll of us are aware of the demographic replacement of indigenous European people in their homelands in Europe and also throughout our diaspora around the world in South Africa, Australia, North America, South America,” Orwoll said during his opening statement to the eight hour conference. “Wherever people of European descent live and have communities, those communities are being threatened,” Orwoll added.

Orwoll’s comments invoke the “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory, a white supremacist, xenophobic, and anti-immigrant concept that posits white people are being replaced by immigrants, Muslims, and other people of color in their so-called “home” countries. The conspiracy often blames the “elite” and Jews for orchestrating these changing demographics, and has inspired mass violence against Jews, Muslims, and immigrants in multiple countries.

Launched in 2020, the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE) was founded by Heidi Beirich and Wendy Via to fill a critical gap in countering the transnational spread of far-right extremism and hate, particularly U.S.-based activity that is exported to other countries and across borders. These networks have grown increasingly coordinated, well-funded, and politically influential across borders.
