Jared Taylor and “Racial Realism”: Why You Need to Know

If Donald Trump is elected as President, he would need policy advisers to translate his harsh anti-immigration, KKK-tolerant stances into real policy. Meet Jared Taylor, a Yale educated advocate of “racial realism.” Recently, he endorsed Trump and his robo-message was apparently used to mobilize Iowa voters.

According to a report from the Southern Poverty Law Center (click here for more), Taylor’s published ideas and views include: 

"Blacks and whites are different. When blacks are left entirely to their own devices, Western civilization — any kind of civilization — disappears."
— American Renaissance, 2005
"Our rulers and media executives will try to turn the story of Hurricane Katrina into yet another morality tale of downtrodden blacks and heartless whites... . [But m]any whites will realize — some for the first time — that we have Africa in our midst, that utterly alien Africa of road-side corpses, cruelty, and anarchy that they thought could never wash up on our shores."
— American Renaissance, 2005
"At its most basic, racial consciousness has as its goal the preservation of a certain people. Its aim is to rekindle among whites what every previous generation until recently so took for granted they did not even give it a name: an instinctive preference for their own people and culture, and a strong desire that they should prosper. I note that every other racial group acts on this healthy instinct and desire. Race realism therefore has no theory of religion, the family, art, or the role of government, except in the very general sense that it expects whites to love, first and foremost, the infinite riches created by European man."

For first-time readers of ProfLERoy, I find these views abhorrent, deeply troubling, and shockingly appealing to many Trump supporters.
