A reported member of the white nationalist is running for a seat on a suburban Kansas City, Mo., school board on a platform that includes 鈥渞emoving materials that promote racial diversity鈥� in a district that is becoming increasingly diverse.

The candidate, Edward Stephens, a 25-year-old electrical engineer, came in fifth 鈥� dead last 鈥� with 5% of the vote when he first ran for a seat on the seven-member Park Hill School board in Platte County in 2012. A candidate who dropped out of the race before the election even got more votes than Stephens.

Students of color make up nearly 30% of the district as families flee the crumbling Kansas City school system. 鈥淒iversity has doubled in the last 15 years,鈥� Park Hill School district spokeswoman, Nicole Kirby, told Hatewatch today. 鈥淭he district supports diversity and making sure we are respecting students across all backgrounds.鈥�

The Council鈥檚 newspaper, Citizen鈥檚 Informer, regularly publishes articles condemning 鈥渞ace mixing,鈥� decrying the evils of illegal immigration, and lamenting the decline of white, European civilization. The group鈥檚 website once described black people as a 鈥渞etrograde species of humanity.鈥� Created in 1985, the Council is the modern reincarnation of the old White Citizens Councils, which were formed in the 1950s and 1960s to battle school desegregation in the South.

鈥淎s a Christian and Freemason, Edward is one of us,鈥� the Council recently announced as it introduced Stephens to readers of its website. The announcement specifically described Stephens as a Council 鈥渕ember.鈥�

Stephens could not be immediately reached for comment. In his campaign literature, he says he has a 鈥渉eart-felt鈥� desire to 鈥減roduce the best possible future leaders of our community.鈥�

Stephens, who grew up in Platte County and graduated from Park Hill High School in 2006 before earning a B.S. degree from Missouri University of Science & Technology, also and teaching 鈥渁 pro-America agenda in our classrooms.鈥�

Kirby, the district spokeswoman, said Stephens had also applied to finish the term of a board member who had resigned earlier in the year. 鈥淗e was not selected,鈥� she said.

In an interview last year with The Pitch, a weekly alternative newspaper in Kansas City, Stephens , one of the best school districts in the state. According to the paper, Stephens said there was too much emphasis on Native American history in the schools.

鈥淲e should focus more as a district on programs that are going to focus on, basically, the white men that founded this country and built this country,鈥� he told the paper. The headline on the story was 鈥淧ark Hill鈥檚 school-board race has a great white dope: race baiter Edward Stephens.鈥�

His candidacy is also being promoted on the website of the , another white supremacist group, under this headline: 鈥淪chool Board Candidate Proposes A 鈥榃hite History Month.鈥欌�� The story quoted Stephens saying: 鈥淚 think we need to also pay attention to the white culture and white accomplishments. The vast majority of the Park Hill School District is white. 鈥� [I]t only makes sense to honor those things as well.鈥�

By rejecting Stephens last year, the voters for a few laughs and well-attended school board meetings, according to Kansas City blogger and columnist Chris Kamler.

鈥淪urely he鈥檇 have come up with some entertaining proposals,鈥� Kamler wrote in the Platte County Landmark shortly after last year鈥檚 election. 鈥淢aybe he鈥檇 have proposed making the Park Hill South Panthers the Park Hill South White Polar Bears? Oh, sure the rest of the board would [have] voted it down, but not [until] after we all had a good laugh.鈥�

Kamler imagined Stephen鈥檚 presence would have packed board meetings and citizen participation 鈥渨ould鈥檝e been at an all-time high as folks came from near and far to hear the racist and divisive comments of a school board member. You might鈥檝e even gotten your own TLC Reality Show.鈥�

The election for four open seats on the board is April 2.
