Biography
Arthur Kemp was born in 1962 in Rhodesia, spending his formative early political years in South Africa. Kemp worked as a journalist for the South African Conservative Party, which opposed the handover of that country to ANC rule.
He was expelled from the Conservative Party in 1992 for coming to the decision to oppose the party’s Apartheid policies, arguing that they were not only immoral, but in practical terms, unenforceable as well. Kemp details all of this and the circumstances which led to his expulsion from the CP in his 2009 book (The Lie of Apartheid and other True Stories from Southern Africa published January 2009).
Clive Derby-Lewis and Janusz Walus were found guilty for their roles in the murder of Chris Hani in 1993. A list of names which Kemp had provided to the third accused, Gaye Derby-Lewis, was not a ‘hit list’ and because of this, Gaye Derby-Lewis was acquitted of all charges and released. Kemp was fully investigated by the South African Police, who were monitored in their investigation by George Churchill-Coleman, the former head of Scotland Yard's anti-terrorist squad, and Mathew Phosa, prominent ANC lawyer. Kemp was not charged with any crime.
As of January 2009, Kemp had written and published five books, some of which have been published by Ostara Publications under the Lulu imprint.
Criticism
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Kemp is a white supremacist who has been active in providing some manner of support to the National Alliance in the United States. Kemp has disputed these allegations, dismissing them as "total rubbish" on his personal website.
