As a teenager, I was the only young female spokesperson for Canada's largest neo-Nazi, white supremacist group, the Heritage Front, and my 1994 court testimony contributed to shutting it down. My story was portrayed in the 1998 CBC film White Lies, starring Sarah Polley as me. http://elisahategan.com/press_clips

Today I am an author, speaker and educator on far-right extremism. If you saw my CBC News or CTV News interviews and want to learn more about my journey from being radicalized as a white supremacist to helping to shut down the group, my memoir RACE TRAITOR is available for sale at Amazon, Kobo and Toronto's Glad Day Bookshop.

At age 16 I was recruited into Canada's most powerful white supremacist group. At 18 I defected, testified against leaders and helped to shut it down. While I was living in hiding, another woman stole my story and monetized it through films, speaking gigs and press coverage. This is my letter to her - a letter about truth, exploitation and the true meaning of courage.
