The conference is back on after first having been cancelled due to intimidation and death threats from left-wing multicult fetishists.
To the degree (which is debatable) that AmRen is “White Nationalist” as opposed to simply “race realist,” I and in general this website have our differences with them, but allowing these anonymous PC thugs to shut down their bi-annual conference would have been a real tragedy.
If you are ever in DC, stay at the Capitol Skyline Hotel which has stepped up to the plate in the face of intimidation.

The MO of the left here seems to be: “If you cannot defeat them via argumentation, intimidate them via death threats!”
Can you imagine what would happen if someone tried to cancel via death threats an NAACP or La Raza conference? There would be nonstop outrage in the media; the national guard would be called in to guarantee the security of the conference.

I hope that in the end we can all agree that preserving our race is extremely important and should go hand in hand with preserving Christianity and Western Civilization. Sam Francis certainly thought so:
“Sam [Francis] often said he could not understand any conservatism that did not fight, first of all, to conserve its own biological basis. He saw racial consciousness as a precondition, a form of anterior conservatism, without which nothing from our civilization could be conserved, much less advanced. He believed that only the biological heirs to the creators of a civilization would cherish it and carry it forward.”

American Renaissance is clearly “white nationalist.” They just usually prefer to use the term “race realist” instead. But their definition of “race realism” is no different than how most would define “white nationalism.”
Jared Taylor has called himself a “white nationalist” on numerous occasions. He’s just somewhat uncomfortable with that label for tactical reasons. He thinks that the term “race realist” sounds more appealing to average Americans.
