Lana Jennifer Lokteff (born March 14, 1979) is an American white supremacist YouTube personality who is part of the alt-right movement.

Lokteff was born in Oregon, United States. She attended Portland State University, and later worked in music production. In 2011 she married Henrik Palmgren, the Swedish host of web media company Red Ice. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Red Ice started in 2003 covering the paranormal and conspiracy theories before shifting to white nationalism and antisemitism. Lokteff and Palmgren have been jointly cited as an influential introduction to white nationalism by members of the far right. Red Ice shifted around 2014 in response to what the couple perceived as "anti-white sentiment" coinciding with the Black Lives Matter movement.

Lokteff denied the Holocaust and the Native American genocide. She has interviewed revisionist historians such as David Cole and Mark Weber.

Following the election of Donald Trump in 2016, Lokteff has attempted to increase the number of other white women involved in the predominately male-dominated alt-right movement. Lokteff has advocated for women to play a supporting role to men in the alt-right. Lokteff opposes feminism, claiming that it has made life more difficult for men and feminism's goals of equality have already been achieved. Lokteff has also spoken in opposition to women accusing Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault. Lokteff has been frequently trolled and threatened by members of the alt-right. Lokteff and Palmgren have children, but have declined to share any information about them.

In 2018 Lokteff was a guest on the podcast of Florida schoolteacher Dayanna Volitich (under the pseudonym Tiana Dalichov). On the podcast, Volitich espoused scientific racist views, endorsed calls for Muslims to be removed "from the face of the Earth", and encouraged other white supremacists to infiltrate American public schools. Volitich later resigned from her teaching position, calling the comments satire.
