°Ä²Ê¿ª½±

The following is a list of current SCV officials at the national, regional (or Army), and state levels who also are (or have been recently) members or representatives of groups listed by the °Ä²Ê¿ª½± as hate groups.

Membership in these hate groups — the Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC), the League of the South (LOS), and Free Mississippi (FM) — is determined from the hate groups' publications, their Web sites and media reports.

In the list below, each person’s name is followed by his position in the SCV and, in parentheses, his hate group affiliation.

Not listed are a large number of SCV officials who have spoken at meetings of hate groups or worked alongside their members.

SCV executive council member Kirk Lyons, a well-known white supremacist who is currently running for an even higher SCV office, is not listed because he has publicly denied being a current member of any hate group.
