Who is Frank Collin?
Francis Joseph "Frank" Collin formerly served as the leader of the National Socialist Party of America. In the late 1970s, its plan to march in the predominantly Jewish suburb of Skokie, Illinois resulted in a case that went to the United States Supreme Court. The court, in a major First Amendment decision National Socialist Party of America v. Village of Skokie, ruled that the party had a right to march and to display a swastika. Collin lost his position in the party when stories were publicized that his father was a Jewish Holocaust survivor.
Later he became an author under the pen name Frank Joseph, writing new age and "hyperdiffusionist" works supporting the hypothesis that Old World peoples migrated to North America and were most likely responsible for the development of its complex indigenous societies.
