Stephen mcnallen books5/27/2023 He had previously, in 1992, begun to issue The Runestone, the periodical that had previously served the Asatru Free Assembly. In 1994, McNallen decided to return to an active leadership role in the Asatru movement, and he founded the Asatru Folk Assembly. In the wake of that decision, a spectrum of Asatru groups emerged. McNallen, who had founded the original Viking Brotherhood that evolved into the Asatru Free Assembly, expressed his desire to step down as leader of the Asatru movement in North America and bring the Asatru Free Assembly to an end rather than pass its corporate structure on to others. The Asatru Folk Assembly is one of several groups that emerged following the disbanding of the Asatru Free Assembly in 1987. The alliance is headed by the Allthing, its representative legislative body to which all the kindred send a delegate. The alliance promotes the growth of the faith on the national and regional levels by sponsoring meetings and publishing materials. It formed as a free association of local Asatru groups called kindreds. One of the groups to emerge from the disbanding of the Asatru Free Assembly in 1987 was the Asatru Alliance, which followed the assembly in its basic teachings and in being a revived form of the ancient religion of the Northern European peoples.
