Instauration was a monthly magazine published between December 1975 and February 2000 by white supremacist Sumner Humphrey Ireland, under the pen-name "Wilmot Robertson". [1] Robertson's work was funded by Wickliffe Draper's Pioneer Fund. [2]

The magazine was described as being hostile to African-Americans, Jews, immigrants, and the LGBT community. [3] [4] [5] Mitch Berbrier, in an article titled "Impression Management for the Thinking Racist", described the magazine as an attempt "to present an intellectualized rhetoric of racism and white supremacy". [6]
