The Council of Conservative Citizens (CofCC or CCC) is an American white supremacist organization.[4][5][6] Founded in 1985, it advocates white nationalism, and supports some paleoconservative causes.[7][8][9][10] In the organization's statement of principles, it states that they "oppose all efforts to mix the races of mankind".[11]

Headquartered in Potosi, Missouri,[12] as of 2015, the group's president is Earl Holt; Jared Taylor is the group's spokesman, and Paul Fromm is its international director.[13]

The CofCC traces its provenance to the segregationist Citizens' Councils of America, which were founded in 1954, but had slipped into obscurity by 1973. The CofCC's original mailing list came from the Citizen's Council, as did several members of the CofCC Board of Directors.[1][14]
