Nativist Haters to Hold National Press Club Event
Next Tuesday, the National Press Club will host a by (TSCP), which has been listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center since 2002. The press conference is being held to announce the release of a new TSCP report, 鈥淭he Twin Crises: Immigration and Infrastructure,鈥 by Edwin S. Rubenstein. Formerly a mainstream journalist, Rubenstein has since the turn of the millennium specialized in writing for white supremacist organizations.
The Social Contract Press, which also publishes the hate journal, The Social Contract, was started by the racist founder of the hate group, and is run by his editor, . Lutton has been on the board of advisors of the , a hate group that has described black people as 鈥渁 retrograde species of humanity.鈥
Under Lutton鈥檚 editorial leadership, Tanton鈥檚 Social Contract journal has published dozens of articles from prominent white supremacists. One special issue was even devoted to the theme of 鈥淓urophobia: The Hostility Toward European-Descended Americans鈥 and featured a lead article from John Vinson, head of the Tanton-backed hate group, the American Immigration Control Foundation. Vinson argued that multiculturalism was replacing 鈥渟uccessful Euro-American culture鈥 with 鈥渄ysfunctional Third World cultures.鈥 Tanton elaborated in his own remarks, decrying the 鈥渦nwarranted hatred and fear鈥 of whites that he blamed on 鈥渕ulticulturalists鈥 and immigrants.
In 1994, Tanton鈥檚 press also republished an infamous racist novel, , along with his wholehearted endorsement and a special afterword from its white author saying that 鈥渢he proliferation of other races dooms our race, my race, to extinction.鈥 The novel describes the 鈥渟warthy hordes鈥 of Indian immigrants who take over France, force white women into 鈥渁 w----house for Hindus,鈥 and, at one point, engage in a grotesque orgy of men, women and children. The immigrants are described as 鈥渕onsters,鈥 鈥済rotesque little beggars from the streets of Calcutta,鈥 and worse. Unconcerned, Tanton said he was 鈥渉onored鈥 to republish what he described as an important and 鈥減rescient鈥 text.
Edwin Rubenstein, author of the new TSCP report, has written dozens of articles for white supremacist organizations. Among them are reports for the (NPI), a white supremacist 鈥渢hink tank鈥 founded in 2005 鈥渢o elevate the consciousness of whites, ensure our biological and cultural continuity, and protect our civil rights.鈥 In 2008, Rubenstein wrote a report on the evils of diversity for NPI, concluding that diversity programs are displacing whites and 鈥渉arming the economy as a whole.鈥
Rubenstein was the main researcher for an earlier NPI report, which gave 鈥渋n concentrated form, a statistical and narrative portrait of the war on white America, and thus, on America herself.鈥 The report鈥檚 introduction, written by , described the Supreme Court鈥檚 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education ruling outlawing school segregation as 鈥渁rguably the worse decision in the Court鈥檚 216-year history.鈥 It also alleged that later civil rights legislation was unconstitutional. 鈥淸I]ntegration and the civil rights movement led directly to the destruction of great cities,鈥 it concludes.
Rubenstein also has written dozens of articles for the anti-immigrant hate site, , which is named for Virginia Dare, said to be the first English child born in America. In a 2003 posting, Rubenstein expressed his unflattering view of Latinos fairly plainly: 鈥淥verall, Hispanics show a significantly higher level of social pathology than American whites. There are even signs that, as a group, Hispanics may displace American blacks and form a new underclass.鈥
