G. Edward Griffin (born November 7, 1931) is an American author, filmmaker, and
conspiracy theorist. Griffin's writings promote a number of right-wing views and conspiracy theories regarding various of his political, defense and health care interests. In his book
World Without Cancer, he argued in favor of a
pseudo-scientific theory that asserted
cancer to be a
nutritional deficiency curable by consuming
amygdalin.
[2][3][4] He is the author of
The Creature from Jekyll Island (1994),
[2] which advances debunked
conspiracy theories[5] about the
Federal Reserve System. He is an
HIV/AIDS denialist, supports the
9/11 Truth movement, and supports a specific
John F. Kennedy assassination conspiracy theory.
[2] He also believes that the Biblical
Noah's Ark is located at the
Durupınar site in Turkey.

In May 2009, Griffin helped
Robert L. Schulz and Edwin Vieira organize a meeting at
Jekyll Island of thirty people which, according to the
Southern Poverty Law Center, included "radical
tax protesters,
militiamen,
nativist extremists, anti-Obama '
birthers,' hard-line
libertarians, conspiracy-minded individuals with theories about
secret government concentration camps, even a raging
anti-Semite named
Edgar Steele."
[16] Speakers at the meeting "warned of 'increasing national instability,' worried about a coming '
New World Order', denounced secret schemes to
merge Canada, Mexico and the United States, and furiously attacked the new president's 'socialized' policies and failure to end illegal immigration", and attendees made plans for a "continental congress" that occurred in November 2009 that was hosted by the
We the People Foundation.
[16] Griffin was the first to speak at the Jekyll Island meeting and he "told conferees that merely putting 'large numbers of people in the street' was not enough. 'We must,' he said, 'achieve power.'"
[16]
He founded an organization called "
Freedom Force International" that put on conventions, like a "Red Pill Expo" in
Bozeman, Montana, in 2017 which, according to the local newspaper, "its organizers say, promotes freedom of choice, (but) has been criticized by human rights proponents as an “
alt-right” recruiting attempt."
