A Secret Revealed on American Renaissance

The “white nationalist” “hate group” VDARE once again posts from another “white nationalist” “hate group” leader, “white supremacist” Jared Taylor of “American Renaissance (AR).”

In his latest complaint “Reap the Whirlwind” on the VDARE “hate group” web site (and others), Jared Taylor bemoans how few have stood up to criticize those hotels that chose not to host his group’s event in February 2010 to promote “white nationalist” hate against their customers of other races.

In Jared Taylor’s latest article, he states that Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.) was one “of the groups that claimed responsibility for shutting down the AR conference.”   As I have written and stated repeatedly, R.E.A.L.’s goal was to educate hotels and the public about the AR conference in February and we repeatedly asked for the opportunity to offer a counter-message to American Renaissance’s message of racism and hate, with our message of racial harmony and love.  We sought to counter American Renaissance’s message attacking diversity, with our message showing the strength of our diversity in America itself.

Nor was there any “suppression” of American Renaissance’s right to assemble.  They had every right to assemble as I did to reach out to the public on February 19.  In fact, R.E.A.L. invited them to join us and the rest of  the public at our Columbia Heights event in Washington DC right out in public view.  American Renaissance and Jared Taylor chose not to show up, just like their supporters failed to show up, except for two frightened youths from Occidental Dissent (one hiding his face behind a black bandanna) that cowered at another street corner.

Despite this, Jared Taylor is calling for an investigation into who is responsible for the rejection of American Renaissance’s message of racial hatred.  I can help him with such an investigation.  In fact, R.E.A.L. did not “shut down” the AR conference, nor did any of the other “groups” that Jared Taylor blames.

I will reveal the “secret” to Jared Taylor here as to who is really responsible for hotels and the public rejecting the message of hate that the American Renaissance sought to promote:

— It was America itself.

Land of the Free, Home of the Brave

America Needs No "Renaissance" from the Truths that we hold self evident - that All Men Are Created Equal...

This is the real adversary that Jared Taylor, American Renaissance, VDARE, and their supporters simply cannot tolerate.   What those of who support “white nationalism” never grasp is that it was never “one person” or “one group” that rejected and protested against the message of racist hate from “American Renaissance.”

America itself has simply had enough of such racist hate in our nation.

America knows that it doesn’t need a “renaissance” from the truths that we hold self-evident — that All Men Are Created Equal — no matter what the American Renaissance group seeks to believe.

America wants no “renaissance” of “white nationalist” hate. America wants no “renaissance” of racism. America wants no “renaissance” that disparages blacks and Hispanics. America has grown up, and has lived through those dark days. America has no intention of going back to the “bad old days.”

Such support for human equality and rejection of racism is a fundamental part of the very declaration of what it means to be an American. This is what those who are blinded by racist hate cannot comprehend.

When I spoke to hotels, their very senior management, and public relations department, I spoke about the TRUTHS that we share – that all men and women are created equal – and that our diversity is a part of our acceptance of such truths. This is why most businesses have public diversity programs. Not because of pressure. But because it is the RIGHT thing to do. It is the AMERICAN thing to do.

So when R.E.A.L. and myself contacted senior decision makers on this issue, that is what we spoke about – the TRUTH. We never made any threats; we reject, condemn, and would help in prosecuting those who made any threats. It is not threats that drive business decisions, but it is businesses’ understanding and respecting ALL of their customers, and the American values that their customers have.

While I am disappointed that businesses did not offer R.E.A.L. an opportunity to have a counter-message event, they consistently rejected “white nationalist” racial hate.

These businesses did so EVEN WHEN IT COST THEM MONEY.

Their conscience was greater than their drive for profit.

Their commitment to all of their customers’ respect and human dignity was more valuable than racist money.

Yet you still don’t get it.

The very concept of America’s definition of its identity – inherent in our very national declaration escapes you. Americans already have a consensus on equality. Americans already have a consensus on racial hate. Americans already have a consensus on hate such as “white nationalism.”

We don’t need an army of “activists” to tell Americans what they already know.

And American businesses are ready to put their MONEY where their values are. Not once, not twice, not three times, and not even just four times. All different people, all different companies, all different races and backgrounds. And not all of them were corporate businesses… some were private businesses — with no shareholders, no corporate boards who would be embarrassed. But they had one thing in common — they were Americans who share the truths that we hold self-evident — that ALL men were created equal.

No they made their decision not because pressure by others, but guided by the compass of their conscience as Americans.

America and the businesses RUN by Americans REJECT racial hate and “white nationalist” hate. They stand tall, at their own expense, even being attacked, and when they don’t expect anyone to appreciate it – in SUPPORT of human equality, dignity, and diversity.

They Choose Love, Not Hate.

Love Wins.

Postscript

Jared Taylor quotes the Bible in the conclusion of his article, warning that those who defy “white nationalism” will “reap the whirlwind…”

While R.E.A.L. is a secular organization, we don’t believe that only “white nationalist hate groups” should be empowered to quote religious scriptures.

So our reply to you, Jared Taylor, is a quote from the same Bible that you quote:

John 13:34 “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.”
