Content Note
This report features descriptions of images that represent hateful, violent ideologies, including those connected to white
supremacist terrorist violence and genocide. We have opted to isolate the images themselves in an appendix at the end of the
report (Appendix A), but there are disturbing descriptions of images throughout the report.
Acknowledgments
This report is a contribution to a growing body of work identifying Amazon and other technology companies’ ties to hate
organizations. We are indebted to the ongoing work of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) to track hate organizations at
Amazon and throughout our society. Color of Change has been tracking hate groups’ use of payment service providers and
Amazon as a selling platform. You can see its work at http://www.bloodmoney.org. SumOfUs has been calling on Amazon to stop
advertising on Breitbart News after many other major companies have done so. You can learn more at https://actions.sumofus
.org/a/amazon-stop-investing-in-hate.
Methodology
To identify hate symbols, this repor t relies on the ADL’s Hate Symbols Database.
1
To identify hate groups and leaders in hate
movements, including publishers and record labels, it relies on the Hate Map project of the SPLC.
2
To identify racist bands making
hate music, this report relies on “Music, Money and Hate,” a 2014 report from the SPLC.
3
To identify products bearing hate symbols on Amazon, researchers conducted searches of Amazon.com using keywords. To
identify books and blogs published by hate group publishers using Kindle, researchers searched for SPLC-identied hate groups
using Amazon’s Advanced Search: Books tool. To identify self-published print books, researchers searched for publications by
SPLC-identied hate publishing houses and authors that list Amazon’s CreateSpace independent publishing platform as the
publisher. To identify hate music available to stream on Amazon, researchers searched for racist bands using both the general
Amazon.com search and Amazon’s Advanced Search: Digital Music tool.
Researchers identied hate organizations using Amazon Web Services’s CloudFront service using two methods. First, they entered
the group’s URL into the CDN Finder tool at CDNPlanet.com. Second, they visited the sites in question and viewed the source code
to identify specic media delivered by CloudFront.

DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It 1
Executive Summary
A
mazon has been called the “everything store,” but today it is much more than just a store, with publishing, streaming,
and web services businesses. Its reach and inuence are unparalleled: Most U.S. online shopping trips begin at Amazon,
4
Amazon dominates the U.S. e-book business,
5
and the company’s web services division has over 60 percent of the cloud
computing services market.
6
All this adds up for Amazon and its owners. The company posted record prots of $1.9 billion
in the last three quarters of 2017,
7
and CEO Je Bezos’s wealth soared to $140 billion in 2018, largely because of the value of
Amazon stock.
8
A close examination of Amazon’s various platforms and services reveals that for growing racist, Islamophobic, and anti-Semitic
movements, the breadth of Amazon’s business combined with its weak and inadequately enforced policies provides a number
of channels through which hate groups can generate revenue, propagate their ideas, and grow their movements. We looked
at several areas of Amazon’s business, including its online shops, digital music platform, Kindle and CreateSpace publishing
platforms, and web services business.
Our key ndings:
!
Amazon enables the celebration of ideologies that promote hate and violence by allowing the sale of hate symbols
and imagery on its site, including Confederate and anti-Black imagery, Nazi and fascist imagery, and the newly adopted
imagery of the modern white nationalist movement. Additionally, a number of these products are targeted at children.
!
As a publisher of media in e-book, print book, and streaming formats, Amazon facilitates the spread of hate ideologies,
including white supremacy, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, and homophobia. Amazon provides a platform for openly
racist writers, musicians, and activists, including some who advocate for violence against Black people, Muslims, Jewish
people, and LGBTQ people.
!
These uses of Amazon’s platforms are made possible by what appear to be inadequate and poorly enforced policies.
Amazon has a policy against “products that promote or glorify hatred, violence, racial, sexual or religious intolerance
or promote organizations with such views”
9
and reserves its right to remove any listing it deems inappropriate.
10
Its Kindle Direct Publishing and CreateSpace businesses reserve the right to reject “oensive” content,
11
while its web
services division (AWS) forbids users from using AWS “to transmit, store, display, distribute or otherwise make available”
oensive content.
12
Either Amazon does not nd the materials outlined in this report oensive or otherwise contrary to

its policies, or it does not consistently enforce its own policies.
!
Amazon has been reactive, not proactive, in its response to use of its site by peddlers of hate. Amazon has a history of
responding slowly—or not at all—to public pressure on this front rather than eectively preventing hate groups from
using its platforms in the rst place.
Amazon has enabled hate organizations and ideologues to spread their ideas and generate resources to support their
operations, and Amazon itself gets a cut of this revenue in turn. This report details the ndings summarized above and makes
several recommendations for how Amazon can take action to correct its failures and ensure that it is not a tool for the growth of
racist hate movements.
Our recommendations for how Amazon should take responsibility:
!
Amazon must take a clear public stand against hate movements and their ideologies and publicly pledge not to
prot from hate.
!
Amazon must develop more robust policies for all of its platforms in consultation with experts who study hate
movements and symbols, such as the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). These new policies must be consistent and
transparent, and evolve appropriately as hate movements and their symbols evolve.
!
Amazon must stop letting its platform be used to sell items featuring hate symbols.
!
Amazon must destroy any merchandise displaying hate symbols currently in Amazon-controlled warehouses and
distribution centers.
!
Amazon must not facilitate the publication and distribution of hate movement propaganda. This means that
Amazon should:
o Stop providing web content delivery services to identied hate groups,
o Remove electronic books by racist propagandists and authors connected to hate groups from its Kindle Store,
o Stop allowing hate literature to be published via Kindle Direct Publishing, and
o Stop making white power and “hatecore” music available on its streaming platform.
!
Amazon must develop and resource transparent enforcement mechanisms to ensure that Amazon and its users and
clients are adhering to its policies.
Hate movements are resurgent in the U.S. and around the globe. Amazon must take a public stand against hate and violence,
and take action to ensure that it is not proting from hate or enabling others to prot from hate. Across its platforms, Amazon
has the right to determine what it sells, publishes, and helps to deliver online. As a wealthy corporation, it has the resources to
ensure its policies are enforced. Amazon has an ethical and moral responsibility to stop delivering hate to the world.

Introduction
A
mazon has been called the “everything store,” and today it is even more
than a store, with publishing, streaming, and web services businesses. Its
reach and inuence are unparalleled. Most U.S. online shopping trips begin
at Amazon,
13
and an estimated 44 cents of every dollar spent on e-commerce
goes to Amazon.
14
Amazon dominates the U.S. e-book business, capturing an
estimated 83 percent of revenue in that sector. Amazon Web Services (AWS),
its cloud computing business, grew its sales by 49 percent in 2017
15
and has over 60 percent of the market.
16
All this adds up for
Amazon and its owners. The company posted record prots of $1.9 billion in the last three quarters of 2017,

!
Amazon has been reactive, not proactive, in its response to use of its site by peddlers of hate. Amazon has a history of
responding slowly—or not at all—to public pressure on this front rather than eectively preventing hate groups from
using its platforms in the rst place.

operations, and Amazon itself gets a cut of this revenue in turn. This report details the ndings summarized above and
makes several recommendations for how Amazon can take action to correct its failures and ensure that it is not a tool for the
growth of racist hate movements.
The Recent Growth of Racist Hate Movements in the U.S. and Amazon
Hate movements are resurgent in the United States. In February 2018, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) reported that
the previous 12 months had seen a growth of hate groups and a continued mainstreaming of their ideas. The SPLC denes
a hate group as an organization that “has beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for
their immutable characteristics,” such as race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
23
Much of the growth
the SPLC identied was with white supremacist organizations.
24
The SPLC’s February report cited action taken by President
Trump, including tweeting out hate materials, as contributing to the “substantial emboldenment of the radical right.”
25
Just a month before the SPLC’s report, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) reported that white supremacists and other far-
right groups were directly responsible for the majority of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2017. The ADL attributed
18 deaths to far-right people and organizations in 2017—twice the number it attributed to those groups in 2016.
26
Among
people murdered in 2017 was Heather Heyer at the white nationalist Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August.
James Alex Fields Jr. drove a car into a crowd of anti-racist protestors at the event, killing Heyer and injuring 19 others.
27
As white nationalist organizations and violence grow, Amazon has been slow to respond to revelations about the way it
provides infrastructure to this movement.
Amazon Reacts to Public Pressure Rather Than Taking Proactive Measures
Amazon’s responses to public pressure over specic products or relationships with specic people or organizations have
been mixed. For example, in 2010, facing heavy public pressure over a Kindle book titled The Pedophile’s Guide to Love and
Pleasure: A Child-Lover’s Code of Conduct, Amazon pulled the book from the Kindle Store.
28
In January of 2018, following
public outcry, Amazon UK removed two Chinese costumes reportedly “modeled by white children pulling their eyelids back
for a more ‘slant-eyed’ look.”

5 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
However, Amazon has sometimes been quite slow to respond to public pressure or publicity. In 2015, the Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) reported that Mark Schwartz, the son of a Holocaust survivor, was calling for a boycott of
Amazon after he found numerous Nazi-themed items on the site, including Nazi ags, Hitler Youth knives, and running shoes
imprinted with swastikas. The CBC reported that a religious group in Canada had publicly alerted Amazon to these issues two
years earlier in 2013 and called on the company to develop a clear policy around such products.
30
A similar incident occurred
with the German Amazon site, which was selling Lego gures dressed as Nazi soldiers. A father who came across the toys while
Christmas shopping gathered 1,500 signatures on a petition calling on Amazon and Lego to take action against the third-party
sellers peddling these toys. According to reporting by Quartz, despite the fact that German law seems to prohibit this type of
use of Nazi imagery, Amazon had failed to remove all of the gures at the time Quartz published a story about the petition.
31
In March of 2015, the Washington Post ran a story about white supremacists using Amazon to make money, focusing on far-
right publisher and hate outlet Counter-Currents’ use of the Amazon aliate program.
32
The Amazon aliate program allows
members to advertise Amazon products on their own sites, with direct links to the products on Amazon. The aliate gets
a percentage of any sales made via those links, up to 10 percent.
33
Though the SPLC had been trying to get Amazon to stop
associating with Counter-Currents for years before the Post article ran, it was not until after the piece appeared that, according
to Counter-Currents, Amazon shut down Counter-Currents’ aliate marketing account.
34
(See the following sections of this
report for more details on Amazon’s ongoing relationship with Counter-Currents.)
Amazon also has a program called AmazonSmile, which allows people to contribute to a particular charity when they make
purchases on Amazon through a special link. In 2014, the SPLC raised concern around the use of these programs to fund certain
white supremacist groups with its report “Financing Hate.”
35
In its report, the SPLC noted that it had contacted Amazon to raise
these issues with the company directly, but three months later, the hate sites SPLC had contacted Amazon about were still
earning commission through Amazon.
36
Years later, Amazon blocked 35 hate organizations from using the Smile program in
December 2017.
37
According to the SPLC, Amazon now makes use of the SPLC’s list of hate organizations that are also charities
and excludes them from the Smile program.
38
While these examples demonstrate that Amazon sometimes responds to public pressure, they also suggest that the company
lacks the internal controls necessary to ensure that it is not providing platforms and revenue sources to hate groups in the rst
place. As hate groups grow and become increasingly emboldened, it is more important than ever that Amazon create and
implement eective policies and practices so the company is not spreading or proting from these ideologies.

6 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
PART 1:
Products Displaying Well-Known Hate Symbols and Language Are Available
on Amazon
W
e found dozens of products for sale on Amazon displaying widely recognized hate symbols, including some Amazon
says it doesn’t allow. Among them were anti-Black imagery and symbols, including the Confederate ag and images
evoking the white supremacist terrorist violence of lynching, Nazi imagery, and well-known modern symbols of hate, such as
Pepe the Frog.
The Confederate Flag and Other Symbols of Violent Anti-Blackness
After neo-Nazi Dylann Roof’s 2015 murder of nine Black worshippers at the Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina,
a national debate reemerged around the Confederate ag and its use in spaces both public and private. Retailers like Walmart,
eBay, Etsy, Sears, and Amazon declared that they would stop selling Confederate ag
products.
39
Amazon also added Confederate ag products to its list of prohibited
items.
40
However, we found dozens of examples of Confederate ag imagery on the site
in June of 2018, for example, a “Confederate Ocer” kids’ costume, which is stickered as
“Amazon’s Choice,” with the Confederate ag pin and patch gift set [Image 1],
41
a T-shirt
[Image 2],
42
and an “old” Georgia state ag featuring Confederate battle imagery [Image 3].
43
That ag was adopted in 1956 by
segregationist lawmakers who were ghting desegregation on multiple fronts,
44
and Georgia replaced that ag in 2001.
Also available is an image described as a “hangman’s noose lynching” d eca l [Image 4].
45
The ADL describes the noose as “one
of the most powerful visual symbols” used against Black Americans. It evokes the American white supremacist practice of
lynching, an extremely violent, often deadly form of social control used by whites after the end of slavery.
46
The connection
with racist violence and intimidation is even more explicit with the “Noosed Costume” [Image 5],
47
which appears to feature a
prosthetic that makes the wearer appear to have been lynched. On Amazon, the costume is modeled by a man who appears
Black, explicitly evoking the racist history of lynching.

examples for sale on the site.

Parents looking for racist clothing for infants can purchase baby onesies featuring a burning cross, available for boys [Image

48
and girls [INBHF 7].
49
The burning cross historically is most associated with the Ku Klux Klan’s racist terror campaigns
against Black Americans, but its use as a hate symbol by white supremacists has transcended both the Ku Klux Klan and
international borders.
50
Nazi Imagery
We found numerous examples of Nazi or fascist imagery. Among them is an eagle sticker [Image 8],
51
which shows up in
search results for “Nazi eagle sticker” and strongly resembles the Nazi eagle that has been adopted by neo-Nazis and white
supremacists around the globe.
52
There is a German SS ocer sword with the SS “bolts” imagery on the handle [Image 9]
53
and
SS hats [Image 10].
54
There is also a swastika necklace [Image 11]
55
labeled hakenkreuz—the German Nazi “hooked cross.”
56
The Totenkopf, or “death’s head,” is a Nazi-era skull-and-crossbones symbol commonly used by modern white supremacists
because of its importance to the German SS.
57
There are numerous Totenkopf items available on Amazon, including decals
[Image 12],
58
ags [Image 13],
59
patches [Image 14],
60
and an LED bar sign [Image 15].
61
(Please see the “Nazi Toys and Racist Propaganda for Children” section for more examples of explicit Nazi imagery.)
Modern Hate Symbols in Widespread Use by Neo-Nazis and Other White Supremacists
Modern white supremacist and neo-Nazi movements have developed new symbols and vocabulary. Perhaps the best-known
modern example of symbolism being used to normalize hate is the Pepe the Frog meme. Pepe is a cartoon frog whose image
was adopted as a symbol by young members of the alt-right and neo-Nazi movements. In September of 2016, the ADL
designated Pepe the Frog a hate symbol and added it to its online hate symbol database.

8 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
2017, fast-food chain Wendy’s was caught unaware by the neo-Nazi frog meme when the company tweeted an image of Pepe
with its Wendy character’s trademark red pigtails. The story made headlines, with infamous neo-Nazi leader and Daily Stormer
website proprietor Andrew Anglin noting that Pepe the Frog had “crossed over” into mainstream culture. Anglin said, “Wendy’s
was always my personal favorite burger joint, but I never would have declared it the ocial burger of the Neo-Nazi Alt-Right
movement—until now. Everyone knows that Pepe is a Nazi frog.”
63
More than a year after the Wendy’s “Pepe tweet” story was widely reported, dozens of products with Pepe imagery are available
on Amazon. For example, there is a Pepe shirt [Image 16]
64
with four prints of the cartoon frog’s face arranged in a way that
suggests a swastika and a baseball cap [Image 17]
65
featuring Pepe the Frog in Nazi uniform. There is also a sweatshirt [Image
18]
66
imprinted with an anti-Muslim version of the meme.
Pepe products also show up in search results for fascist imagery. For example,
a search on Amazon for “fascist ag” returned a “Kek” ag
67
among various
traditional Italian and British fascist symbols [Image 19]. Kek is an alt-right
meme strongly associated with Pepe the Frog, and the Kek ag design—as
the SPLC points out—“perfectly mimics” a German Nazi war ag.
68
Amazon’s
algorithm is apparently able to provide shoppers who are looking for fascist items with both traditional, historical options and
more modern options. Along similar lines, Amazon shoppers can also buy a “Kekfederate ag” [Image 20],
69
a ag modeled after
the traditional Confederate ag but featuring a Pepe the Frog color scheme and images.
The availability of these modern hate symbols on the world’s largest online shopping site serves to normalize and validate the
ideas they represent.
Nazi Toys and Racist Propaganda for Children
Perhaps the most insidious way Amazon lets its platform be used is through the sale of hate-promoting products intended for
children. We found numerous examples of racist toys and children’s products featuring Pepe the Frog, as well as a children’s
book that is intentionally racist, anti-immigrant propaganda. Racist family members can use Amazon to buy products that help
them expose their children to messages and symbols of hate, helping normalize racist beliefs from a young age. Or adults who
are unaware of the ideology behind images such as Pepe could inadvertently send their child out into the world wearing or
carrying products emblazoned with hate movement imagery.

founded the American Nazi Party in 1959 and coined the term “white power.”
71
American white supremacist David Duke has
called Rockwell “the greatest American who ever lived,”
72
and with the recent public reemergence of neo-Nazism, Rockwell’s
ideas have seen a resurgence.
The description on Amazon’s site makes no mention of Rockwell’s background or the racist propaganda in the book. Parents
considering the book would see it described as a “witty,” colorfully illustrated story about ducks whose lives are ruined by “an
inux of pushy, scheming hens.”
73
Those taking a closer look might notice a user review approvingly describing the book as
a “Great National Socialist Kids book” that “teaches our children to be careful and don’t let refugees in to your country” and
illustrates how “we” are “screwed by the colored birds!”
74
We also found other Nazi-themed toys and action gures still up for sale in the U.S. and in the U.K. For example, on Amazon’s
U.S. site, mini-gurines [Image 22]
75
depicting a World War II German machine gun team are listed with a manufacturer-
recommended age of “8 years and up.” An action gure [Image 23] described as suitable for children as young as three
years old depicts not a historical German soldier but an “Ultimate Soldier 21st Century Wehrmacht German”—apparently
transporting the Nazi-era German armed forces into the modern era.
76
The U.K. Amazon site has a set of Nazi motorcycle soldier
gurines [Image 24]
77
and numerous individual Nazi soldier gurines, such as one carrying a World War II–era Panzerfaust gun
[Image 25].
78
Readers will remember Pepe, the neo-Nazi frog from our discussion of modern hate symbols. Pepe products for kids are also
abundant on Amazon. For example, a backpack [Image 26]
79
for “1–6 years old,” available in pink or blue, features an angry-
looking Pepe image. Another item listed under “Kids’ Backpacks” features Pepe as Donald Trump [Image 27].
80
(A Pepe Trump
meme became popular with Trump supporters during the run-up to the 2016 election and was even tweeted by the Trump
campaign.
81
) Another backpack described as “beautiful for girls” depicts Pepe wearing an SS ocer’s hat [Image 28].
82
Fidget
spinners featuring the frog with a swastika across its belly [Image 29] are described as “great toys for dget, anxiety, focus,
ADHD, autism, quitting bad habits.”
83
There are even items for babies, such as a romper [Image 30]
84
featuring a dark-skinned
Pepe with a beard and a turban, evoking a common anti-Muslim stereotype.

10 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
PART 2:
Groups Are Using Amazon to Spread Hate Ideologies through Books, Music,
and Online Content
H
ate groups and racist propagandists are also using Amazon’s e-book, self-publishing, and web services businesses to
spread their ideologies and grow their movements. In these cases, Amazon is not just a retailer of products created by
others, but it actually facilitates the publication or delivery of racist, Islamophobic, and anti-Semitic content, and in doing so
generates revenue for itself. Additionally, companies dedicated to selling hate music—a powerful recruitment tool for racist
movements—are able to sell on Amazon.
While a great many books espousing a variety of views—including
racist, misogynist, Islamophobic, and anti-Semitic views—are available
for sale on Amazon in both print and e-book formats, here we focus on
hate organizations and ideologues using Amazon to spread their ideas,
persuade people to their point of view, and generate income to support
their ongoing work. The ideological purpose behind these people and
organizations, and their identication as hate groups or leaders by the
SPLC, distinguishes them from publishers or sellers who distribute a wide variety of books via Amazon’s platform. Additionally,
Amazon’s facilitation of the publication of books and e-books, and delivery of online content, provides these groups with a
larger platform and potential audience than they would otherwise have.
Amazon’s Kindle Fans Flames of Hate
Amazon is the country’s largest seller of e-books, taking in an estimated 83 percent of all e-book revenue annually.
85
Amazon
sells “Kindle Edition” e-books on its site, which customers can read on its proprietary e-reader, the Kindle. Amazon makes Kindle
Edition e-books available through its deals with publishing houses
86
and through KDP, a service for smaller publishers and
individuals.
87
At least seven SPLC-identied hate groups are publishing materials in Amazon Kindle format as of June 2018, per a review of
Amazon’s site (see Appendix B for a full list of titles from these publishers).
The white nationalist publishing house Counter-Currents
88
has 50 titles available in Kindle format.

Titles include Truth, Justice,
and a Nice White Country; Trevor Lynch’s White Nationalist Guide to the Movies; and In Defense of Prejudice.

content, provides hate groups with a larger
platform and potential audience than they
would otherwise have.
11 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
Currents distributes its regular blog via Amazon Kindle; for 99 cents per month, readers can have Counter-Currents’ blog posts
automatically delivered to their Kindle.
91
The promotional image included on the listing for the Kindle blog subscription is a
screenshot of a blog post titled “Some Thoughts on Hitler,” still available on the Counter-Currents website. The writer of the post
argues that “anti-Hitler orthodoxy” is “tacit propaganda for multiracialism” and that it is incumbent on white nationalists “as a
simple matter of self-defense, to arrive at a balanced view of Hitler.”
92
Chick Publications, long identied as a hate group due to its “militant, vitriolic
propaganda war against anyone who doesn’t adhere to its particular brand
of Christianity,”
93
has 85 Kindle titles available on Amazon,
94
including titles
that focus on conspiracy theories about Islam,
95
debunking the Qur’an,
96
and
converting Muslims to Christianity.
97
Additionally, Chick Publications is a seller on
Amazon, meaning it distributes its print publications directly via the site.
98
Kindle titles from Fidelity Press include The Jews and Moral Subversion and Escape from Globalism (“globalism” is a well-known
anti-Semitic dog whistle).
99
The SPLC identies Fidelity as part of the radical traditional Catholicism hate movement, which “may
make up the largest single group of serious anti-Semites in America.”
100
Twenty-six titles from Fidelity, including Escape from
Globalism, appear to be available only in Kindle format—no print editions are available per the publisher’s website.
101
Fidelity,
like Chick, is a seller on Amazon as well.
102
By facilitating the publication of these e-books, Amazon is helping hate groups reach a large audience and make their
materials available within mere moments. While the terms of Amazon’s deals with these individual publishers are unknown, the
company’s description of its digital pricing states that it keeps between 30 and 65 percent of revenues from sales of e-books
published via KDP.
103
Amazon’s content guidelines for its KDP service reserve the company’s “right to make judgments about whether content is
appropriate and to choose not to oer it” and say that “what we deem oensive is probably about what you would expect.”
104
Whether Amazon does not nd these publications oensive or has failed to apply its standards is unknown to us.

Amazon’s CreateSpace Publishes Virulently Racist Content
Known white supremacists also use Amazon’s tools to publish print versions of their work. CreateSpace is Amazon’s self-
publishing service for print books. Similar to Kindle, CreateSpace’s content guidelines reserve the company’s right to reject
content as inappropriate, and go further in warning against oensive content: “Be aware of cultural dierences and sensitivities.
Some materials may be acceptable in one country, but unacceptable in another. Please keep in mind our global community of
customers.”
105
The Occidental Quarterly is a racist journal devoted to the idea that as whites lose majority status, “the civilization and free
governments that whites have created” are in danger.
106
As of June 2018, the Occidental Quarterly has published at least ve
editions via CreateSpace, all available for sale on Amazon.com.
107
Each of these issues lists Kevin MacDonald as an author.
MacDonald has been called “the neo-Nazi movement’s favorite academic.”
108
Also published through CreateSpace and available for sale on Amazon.com is Kyle Bristow’s novel White Apocalypse.
109
The
SPLC describes the book as a “bloodthirsty white nationalist fantasy” and criticized Amazon for publishing the book in 2011.
110
According to the SPLC, the book was hailed as “a bracing inspiration for future recruits” to white nationalism.
111
Billy Roper is a white supremacist who has predicted the breakup of the United States into ethno-states and who coordinates
a group that believes it is preparing to create and defend a white ethno-state in the Ozark Mountains.
112
Roper has used
CreateSpace to publish 18 ction and nonction books on this and related topics.
113
The description for one begins, “In ‘The Ice
Path’, the best-selling ction author in the White Nationalist movement deftly interweaves a prehistorical and historical ction
narrative with an autobiographical testimony and nonction ‘Rules For Racialists’ guide to becoming a person of inuence
within the pro-White movement.”
114
The SPLC describes Roper as “the uncensored voice of violent neo-Nazism.”
115
CreateSpace says it keeps 40 percent of the list price of books it publishes, plus additional charges per book and, in some cases,
per page. In an example provided by CreateSpace to describe its royalty structure to potential users, the Amazon subsidiary
would keep the equivalent of 74 percent of a book’s list price.

13 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
Streaming “Hatecore” Celebrates Violence and Racism
Music has long been a recruitment tool for organized white supremacists. As the ADL reported in 2012, “white power music is
not simply entertainment. It is music with a message, a medium used to express an ideology suused with anger, hatred and
violence.”
117
The SPLC describes white power or “hatecore” music as a “multimillion-dollar, worldwide industry that is a primary
conduit of money and young recruits to the radical right.”
118
The explosion of digital music distribution has bolstered the hate music world in recent years.
119
Devin Burghart, a researcher
who has tracked white supremacy in music for more than 20 years, says that racist musicians have been “emboldened” since
Trump rose to power. White power bands are playing more frequently, and white power ideologies are showing up in more
genres.
120
As of June 2018, Amazon is oering streaming music and digital downloads
from least 11 bands identied as making hate music (see Appendix C for a
full list of bands and titles available to stream or download). For example,
Amazon oers 21 songs from racist band Max Resist, including “Romantic
Violence” and “Boot Party,” which celebrate physical violence.
121
Among the
30 titles from Brutal Attack is one called “Unity,” which includes the lyrics
“European unity, white power, pride and dignity.”
122
This song is titled “European Unity” elsewhere,
123
and the title may have
been shortened on Amazon Digital Music in order to make use of the mainstream distribution channel. Similarly, a number of
titles from racist band Chingford Attack have been altered on Amazon streaming, but their content remains virulently racist,
anti-Semitic, and misogynist. These titles include “C. Hunt,” where C stands for a racist epithet for Black people; “Dirty B Bastard,”
listed elsewhere as “Dirty Black Bastard” and containing that lyric; “J Lies,” for “Jewish Lies”; and “Dirty W Whore,” for “Dirty White
Whore,” a song about white women married to Black men.
124
The digital samples of Chingford Attack’s songs available on
Amazon include explicitly racist lyrics like those in the song titles.
125
In addition to identifying specic bands, the SPLC identies a number of record labels that produce and distribute hate
music,
126
and at least four have a cumulative 48 albums available on Amazon to stream or download as of June 2018. Nineteen
albums from Elegy Records are available digitally on Amazon.
127
The album art for Bitter Peace’s Ashes of Oppression shows a
man carrying what resembles an Imperial German ag.
128
According to the ADL, some neo-Nazis use this ag because Germany

has banned use of the swastika and other Nazi imagery.
129
From ISD Records, there is Valhalla’s Warriors by Warhammer.
130
This
album includes the song “Aryan White” and other songs whose titles appear to have been shortened on Amazon to make them
less apparently racist: “Die Die” on Amazon is listed as “Die Jew Die” elsewhere, while “W.P. Skinheads” on Amazon is “White Pride
Skinheads.”
131
Finally, in addition to providing digital distribution to hate bands and record labels, Amazon allows R.A.C. Records, a distributor
of racist music, T-shirts, ags, and other products, to maintain an entire storefront on Amazon with 204 items up for sale as of
June 2018.
132
R.A.C.’s worldview is apparent; the domain www.whitepower.com redirects to its website.
133
Through the R.A.C.
storefront, customers can purchase music by racist bands, including perhaps the best-known and most notorious white power
band, Skrewdriver.
134
Skrewdriver is so beloved among white supremacists that despite the band’s breakup more than two
decades ago, its logo is the most common white power symbol used on “tattoos, patches, pins, and clothing.”
135
The Amazon
R.A.C. storefront also carries issues of a white power magazine called Resistance.
136
Amazon’s guidelines for the content of music sold on its site, including streaming and digital music, appear to be the same
as those provided to CreateSpace users: nothing “oensive”; “be aware of cultural di erences.”
137
Musicians and record labels
wishing to oer streaming music or digital downloads on Amazon must go through a distributor,
138
and it does not appear that
the terms of the distribution are published by Amazon. However, according to one distributor, Amazon sets the retail price of
digital releases, and bands typically receive about 60 percent of the retail price.
139
Other platforms, like Apple Music and Spotify, have taken steps to remove hate music from their streaming services following
critical reports from journalists and the SPLC.

15 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
Web Services
Through AWS, Amazon facilitates the publication and distribution of digital media.
141
Among the services oered by AWS is
CloudFront, a content delivery network (CDN). CDNs are networks of servers that cache the static content of websites, allowing
websites to load quickly.
142
Indeed, Amazon says CloudFront “securely delivers data, videos, applications, and APIs to your
viewers with low latency and high transfer speeds.”
143
Among the content Amazon is helping to deliver via CloudFront is the website of ACT for America,
144
which the SPLC and the
ADL identify as the largest anti-Muslim hate group in the United States.

groups, like Identity Evropa and National Vanguard.
146
ACT for America
claims to have successfully lobbied for 84 pieces of legislation in 32 states
to date.
147
At least two other hate groups are using CloudFront to deliver content on
their websites.
One of these, Counter-Currents Publishing, was described
above, and visitors to its website can read its blog, order books, stream
podcasts, and watch videos.
148
Publisher Greg Johnson claimed in a recent blog post that the site receives about 150,000
unique visitors each month.
149
The anti-LGBTQ organization American Vision is another.
150
On its site, users can listen to
podcasts, watch videos, read articles, and buy books. A post from March 2018 explores a debate about whether the death
penalty should apply to LGBTQ people.

16 • DELIVERING HATE: How Amazon’s Platforms Are Used to Spread White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia and How Amazon Can Stop It
Conclusion and Recommendations
A
mazon has responded to public pressure in particular instances and for particular parts of its empire, but has failed to
create internal systems that eectively prevent hate groups from using its platforms to propagate their ideas or that stop
the spread of hate symbols via its online store. In a moment when hate groups and racist violence are on the rise, Amazon’s
failure to e ectively block hate organizations from the use of its platforms to spread violent ideologies is a dangerous choice.
The relationship between certain symbols and ideologies and violence is well understood in other parts of the world. In
Germany, it is illegal to display Nazi imagery or to use hate speech, because these things are understood not as neutral speech
but as provocations to violence.
Amazon must take a public stand against this hate and violence, and take action to ensure that it is not proting from hate or
enabling others to prot from hate. Across its platforms, Amazon has the right to determine what it sells, publishes, and helps
to deliver online. As a wealthy corporation, it has the resources to ensure its policies are enforced.
Our recommendations for how Amazon should take responsibility:
!
Amazon must take a clear public stand against hate movements and their ideologies and publicly pledge not to prot
from hate.
!
Amazon must develop more robust policies for all of its platforms in consultation with experts who study hate
movements and symbols, such as the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). These new policies must be consistent and
transparent, and evolve appropriately as hate movements and their symbols evolve.
!
Amazon must stop letting its platform be used to sell items featuring hate symbols.
!
Amazon must destroy any merchandise displaying hate symbols currently in Amazon-controlled warehouses and
distribution centers.
!
Amazon must not facilitate the publication and distribution of hate movement propaganda. This means that Amazon
should:
o Stop providing web content delivery services to identied hate groups,
o Remove electronic books by racists and other peddlers of hate from its Kindle Store,
o Stop allowing hate literature to be published via KDP, and
o Stop making white power and “hatecore” music available on its streaming platform.
!
Amazon must develop and resource transparent enforcement mechanisms to ensure that Amazon and its users and
clients are adhering to its policies.
