Generation Identitaire

Generation Identity (GI) is a pan-European youth movement that originated in France in 2012 as the youth wing of France's Les Identitaires movement.* GI has since spread to five other regions in Europe. Its newest branch claims to span the United Kingdom and Ireland, which the group claims are “inflicted by extreme multiculturalism.”* GI believes that white Europeans are falling victim to “the Great Replacement”—“the process by which the indigenous European population is replaced by non-European migrants.”* GI seeks to stop what it views as the Islamization of Europe, stop globalization, and reverse the “Great Replacement.”*
