Meet Denise Cristal Zamora, born January 17, 1993, a white nationalist and president of American Guard of Nevada living in the greater Las Vegas metropolitan area. We feel that Denise’s choice to uphold the tenets of white supremacy and her attempt to start an American Guard chapter are a threat to our communities. You, the residents of every Nevada community, should know more about Denise in order to unite against the growing threat of neo-nazism, white nationalism, and white supremacy.

In 2016, American Guard was born from a mid-west chapter of Soldiers of Odin USA. Most, if not all, Soldier of Odin USA members are white supremacists or anti-government extremists. They became a national organization in early 2017, founded by Brien James, a well-known white supremacist who is also a co-founder of the Vinlanders Social Club, a racist skinhead gang.

On August 17, 2019, ten members of American Guard of California traveled, by bus (owned by Kristopher Wyrick), to Portland, OR, for the “End Domestic Terrorism” rally organized by fascist Proud Boys member Joe Biggs. The ten American Guard members traveled to the rally and attacked residents of Rose City. Mark Quon attacked antifascist protestors with a hammer before having the hammer taken away. After fleeing, and later that evening, the bus they were traveling in was spotted near Eugene, OR, heading southbound on Interstate 5, where they allegedly brandished a pistol at the passengers of a car as they attempted to take pictures of their bus. All 10 members were later identified by antifascists.
Aside from Denise’s intensions of starting an American Guard chapter in Las Vegas, Denise likes to surround herself with fascist groups such as SPLC-designated extremists Proud Boys.

Another group Denise has ties with are Texas Nomads SAR (SAR is an acronym for Sons of the American Revolution), whose logo has an image of the Iron Cross.

Texas Nomads SAR, spearheaded by Christopher Ritchie (Facebook Profile ID: 100000285224483), is a xenophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim group as evidenced by the mission statement on their Facebook page, which states the Nomads believe “our veterans and warriors should come before refugees and illegal criminals. As Americans we know radical Islam and sharia law have no place in this country.” Texas Nomads SAR operate two Facebook pages: Texas Nomads SAR (Facebook Page ID: 292134178129205) and Texas Nomads SAR info (Facebook Page ID: 1877975469152075).

Upon a quick browsing of Denise’s Facebook, we discovered that she enjoys the personalities of Haley Adams, Anthime “Tim” Gionet (aka Baked Alaska), and so-called Judge Ray Moore of Alabama. Additionally, she likes the page of Patriot Prayer, a Vancouver, WA, group led by Christofascist Joey Gibson. We could not ignore Denise’s interest in the pages of PragerU, a conservative right-wing news outlet known for hosting far-right personalities such as Ben Shapiro (founder, The Daily Wire), Candace Owens (vlog “Red Pill Black”), and Charlie Kirk (founder and head of Turning Point USA).

Lastly, thanks to Nevada’s publicly accessible voter registration details, we discovered Denise is affiliated with the Non-Partisan Party and is registered to vote in Clark County, Nevada.
This article has been posted to expose an American Guard chapter trying to gain foothold in Sin City, Nevada. We post documentation like this to keep our communities safe and aware of potential threats. The police won’t do anything to protect us from fascists and white supremacists so it is on us to help defend our communities from the growing threats of fascism and white supremacy.
A huge shout out and many thanks to Utah Antifascists for bringing Denise to our attention.
