A term originally coined by Ben Klassen and used extensively throughout his book the White Man's Bible, Racial Holy War (also called RaHoWa or capitalized, RAHOWA and often abbreviated as simply R!) is what the white separatist religion known as Creativity, perceives as an ongoing conflict, in which white people are united in a holy war against Jews and other non-whites. Some use it in both a Cold War sense and to refer to a violent race war. Specifically, the idea is that people of what white separatists consider to be pure white European descent marshal their forces against what they describe as "mud races," who they claim are led by the Jews. The term "racial holy war" has gained some popularity within white racialist terminology, but it has not seen wide use other than as a slogan within white separatist groups. Creators often use RAHOWA! as a salutation when meeting and greeting.
Music
In the early 1990s George Burdi (a now former Canadian member, Ukrainian by heritage, of what was then called the Church of the Creator) formed a band called Rahowa. They released two albums from 1993-1995. Many of their songs had explicitly racist and violent lyrics. For more about the band, see the Wikipedia entry on RaHoWa (band).
Role-playing game
The name Racial Holy War was also used for a free role-playing game published by Reverend Kenneth Molyneaux of the White Separatist, World Church of the Creator (as it was then known). The RPG is based on the premise that the non-White races have largely conquered the world, and that white heroes must now rise up to defeat them. Hit points are regained by scavenging food or reading White Power literature. Amongst the rule-set is a system for being bribed by Jews into missing turns, a system for weapons themselves to gain experience points, and very specific determinations for special attack methods from other races.[1] The game can currently be found on the Creativity Alliance Downloads page. (See External Links.)
Racial Holy War In Popular Culture
As with music and role-playing, "RaHoWa" has also appeared on TV. On the episode Raw of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, an inmate has RaHoWa tattooed on his back and even yells this while being dragged out of court.
