Kahanoff Center: 2nd Floor, 1201 Center Street SE, Calgary.

Mission Statement

A group of diverse but like-minded individuals, the members of ARC have come together in their common desire to fight hatred, bigotry, intolerance and violence because of the harm these antisocial behaviors cause to our society. In that effort, we will not use or sanction the use of illegal actions (such as violence or intimidation) in pursuit of our desired aims and if we learn of anyone who does use these unethical methods we will report those individuals to the authorities. Instead, we will use the guarantees found in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms that ensure freedom of legal speech and expression.

'Race Traitor' by Elisa Hategan

You can purchase Elisa Hategan's novel, Race Traitor here at Amazon.ca. The Kindle version is located here.

Described by publishers as raw, explosive and frightening, Race Traitor is inspired by the incredible true story of a Jewish teenage girl who becomes recruited by a neo-Nazi terrorist group. To sixteen-year old runaway Lara Aslan, the new friends she finds in the secretive Patriot Front are the family she’s never had. They feed her when she’s hungry, watch her back and provide her with shelter at the home of infamous Holocaust denier Heinz Zimmer, whose web of hate connects neo-Nazis worldwide. Under the guidance of the mysterious Markus Bellow, covert leader of the Patriot Front, Lara swiftly undergoes a radical transformation that integrates weapon-training, combat skills and information-gathering tactics to produce the perfect terrorist. Thinking it’s all a game, Lara doesn’t know that the Patriot Front will stop at nothing to achieve their clandestine aim. The Patriot Front, in turn, is not aware of Lara’s own dark, long-buried secrets, which come to light on the heels of a brutal attack.

A gripping, fast-paced storyline inspired by actual events, Race Traitor blends the thrilling joyride of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo with the revolutionary manifesto of V for Vendetta. An unforgettable journey into the darkness of the human heart, this is a tale that is sure to stay with you long after the book has ended.
