A whites-only city in the United States sparks controversy: It does not accept Jews and gay people.

A report by the Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth covered fascinating details about the "White City" in America, which does not accept entry to certain communities and ethnicities, including Jews and gays.
The controversial community, established in the remote Ozark Mountains of Arkansas, is called "Back to the Land." It aims to attract only white residents and is led by Eric Orwell, a Californian who promotes white supremacy.
The report confirmed that the new white community applies strict rules that prevent the entry of Jews, blacks, and the LGBT community, reflecting the rise of the far right in the United States.
In a YouTube video, Orwell, who has 20,000 subscribers, states: “If you want a white nation, you have to build a white city.”
The community covers 160 acres and is home to approximately 40 people, including six children. Residents are building their own homes, digging wells, and establishing a children's school and community center. The community defines itself as an association for people of European descent and traditional beliefs, focusing on promoting family values and ancient principles.
Although the community promotes itself as a "private group," its activities have drawn criticism for their racist approach and laws that recall the segregation laws that were officially repealed in the 1960s. The community invites members to donate to support its projects, including legal aid and the construction of new settlements. Back to the Land aims to expand by establishing four additional settlements in various regions of the United States, in the Ozark Mountains, the Deep South, and the Appalachians.
Although Orwell and his colleagues insist that the community does not seek to harm others, American laws, such as the Civil Rights Act of 1968, prohibit racial discrimination, making the existence of the community legally questionable. Community leaders rely on legal loopholes to avoid accountability. The settlement is treated as a private association of friends, and members are only allowed to join after passing rigorous admission tests.
Yedioth Ahronoth reported that community leaders, such as Arwell and Peter Sri, use symbols and numbers associated with white supremacist and neo-Nazi movements, such as the number "1488," which refers to well-known racist slogans. They also openly express their "anti-Semitism," with Sri posting offensive statements about Jews, accusing them of trying to "undermine" the community.
Many have criticized the project as a revival of segregation laws, while Orwell and the community's residents describe themselves as a "loving community" that protects their culture. Their opponents, however, argue that such communities reinforce racism and incite divisions in American society.
Orwell believes that race is "not just skin color," but encompasses genetic and cultural differences. He also asserts that white society is threatened by immigration and cultural changes, calling for the preservation of European racial identity. Despite his attempts to present himself in a moderate light, his past statements indicate his admiration for controversial figures such as Hitler.
