Russ Bellant

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Russ Bellant (born 1949) is an American journalist, political activist, and author. He was an Associate of Political Research Associates.

Old Nazis, the New Right, and the Republican Party is Bellant's most widely cited work. Chris Simpson wrote in the preface, "This book presents some of the best new research into the seamy side of the 'Reagan Revolution.'

The Harvard Educational Review calls Old Nazis, the New Right, and the Republican Party an important book "which exposes the roots and growth of domestic fascist networks."[1]

In the same book Bellant documents Nazi involvement in Ukraine; The Nation said "Bellant's exposure of émigré Nazi leaders from Germany's World War II allies in the 1988 Bush presidential campaign was the driving force in the announced resignation of nine individuals, two of them from Ukraine".[2]

Bellant appeared as himself in the political documentary American Secrets.[3]
