Who is George Burdi?
George Burdi, also known as George Eric Hawthorne, is a Canadian musician who initially became known for his role in white nationalist organizations. He led the Canadian branch of the World Church of the Creator, which formed an allegiance with the now-defunct White nationalist organization Heritage Front. In addition, Burdi was involved directly in the white power music scene, performing with the band RaHoWa. Burdi was convicted of assault causing bodily harm, and was sentenced to one year in prison. Upon his release from prison, Burdi openly renounced racism. He now works with Life After Hate, a U.S.-based organization founded by reformed white power skinheads, "dealing with the triumph of love, peace, compassion and openness," which works to educate and inspire others to avoid the same mistakes. "The mission of Life After Hate is to demonstrate and reinforce the primal, basic goodness of humanity."
