Paul Craig Cobb (born 1951)[2] is a white nationalist and a white supremacist who created the video sharing website Podblanc. He states "my race is my religion",[3] and advocates "racial holy war" in accordance with the tenets of the Creativity religion.[4] Cobb has received attention from anti-racist and anti-fascist organizations, and legal advocacy organizations which investigate hate speech and hate crimes, for his "celebration of violence and murder committed against minorities",[5][better source needed] as documented in his video recordings, online activities, and disruptions of public events.[6][better source needed]

Cobb is known for his attempt to take over the city of Leith, North Dakota, with other white supremacists. The community has around 33 inhabitants. Cobb, who moved to Leith in 2012, encouraged other white supremacists to move to the town, and he displayed white nationalist paraphernalia on his properties. In Leith, Local residents and anti-racist organizations organized a protest against Cobb and his allies. Welcome to Leith, a documentary film about Cobb's attempt to take over Leith, was broadcast in 2015.

Cobb has appeared on several radio talk shows to talk about his plans for the white supremacist movement in Leith. During his appearance on The Trisha Goddard Show, the results of a DNA test which was performed on Cobb by the company DDS showed that he has 14% sub-Saharan African ancestry.[7] However, Cobb retested himself with AncestryDNA, which allegedly showed that he has 100% European ancestry.[8]
