Racial nationalism is an ideology that advocates a racial definition of national identity . Racial nationalism seeks to preserve " racial purity " of a nation through policies such as banning race mixing and the immigration of other races. To create a justification for such policies, racial nationalism often promotes eugenics , and advocates political and legislative solutions based on eugenic and other racial theories.

Calhoun of South Carolina said, "I know further, sir, that we have never dreamt of incorporating into our Union any but the Caucasian race—the free white race. To incorporate Mexico, would be the very first instance of the kind of incorporating an Indian race; for more than half of

Anybody who is not proud of his race is not a man at all. And any man who tries to stigmatize the Australian community as racist because they want to preserve this country for the white race is doing our nation great harm ... I reject, in conscience, the idea that Australia should or ever can become

Especially notable is the prevalence of devotional forms and esoteric themes, so these subcultures often have the character of new religious movements . Included under the same umbrella by Goodrick-Clarke are movements ranging from conservative revolutionary schools of thought ( Nouvelle Droite , European New Right , Evolian Traditionalism ) to white supremacist and white separatist interpretations of Christianity and paganism ( Christian Identity , Creativity , Nordic racial paganism ) to neo-Nazi subcultures ( Esoteric Hitlerism , Nazi Satanism , National Socialist black metal ).

Modern members of racist organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan generally favor the term and avoid self-describing as white supremacist. Some sociologists have used white nationalism as an umbrella term for a range of white supremacist groups and ideologies, while others regard these movements as distinct. Analysis suggests that two groups largely overlap in terms of membership, ideology, and goals. Civil rights groups have described

Meadowlands became part of a new planned Black city called Soweto . The Sophiatown slum was destroyed by bulldozers, and a new White suburb named Triomf (Triumph) was built in its place. This pattern of forced removal and destruction was to repeat itself over
588-401: A lower socioeconomic status . The SPLC accuses Taylor of selection bias in his statistics. The SPLC also argues that Whites are targeted for robberies simply because of their higher wealth. Taylor counters by arguing that robberies only account for about one quarter of the total crimes committed by Blacks. Social activist and writer Tim Wise wrote an essay titled The Color of Deception as

Chinese immigration to Canada had already been heavily regulated by
756-720: A racially homogeneous society. Taylor is a self-styled "race realist" who cites pseudoscience and other forms of scientific racism to attribute racial disparity (e.g. between blacks and whites) in socioeconomic outcomes to underlying biological (" phenotypic ") differences. Regarding Jews, the ADL writes that "Taylor eschews anti-Semitism . Seeing Jews as white, greatly influential and the "conscience of society," Taylor rather seeks to partner with Jews who share his views on race and racial diversity" and "Jews have been speakers or participants at all eight American Renaissance conferences" although controversy followed accusations by David Duke , who
840-447: A reaction to a perceived decline in the essence of American identity as European, Anglo-Protestant and English-speaking. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 had opened entry to the US to immigrants other than traditional Northern European and Germanic groups , and as a result it would significantly, and unintentionally, alter the demographic mix in the US. The slogan "white power"

His essay used data from the FBI and BJS showing that interracial crimes are actually fairly rare; that the vast majority of black (and white) crime is committed against victims of the same race; that whites still account for the majority of crime in the United States; and that part of the reason blacks are over-represented for many crime categories is their neighborhoods are generally much more heavily policed and black suspects are significantly less likely to be acquitted or released with

The article also uses statistical data to argue that blacks are actually over-represented as victims of interracial violence per capita (arguing blacks are 50% more likely to be victims of interracial violence than pure chance would predict), and that overall, white criminals pose the greatest threat to white Americans and black criminals pose the greatest threat to black Americans. In
1176-614: A wide variety of mutually influencing groups of a radically ethnocentric character which have emerged, especially in the English-speaking world , since World War II . These loose networks use a variety of mystical, occult or religious approaches in a defensive affirmation of white identity against modernity , liberalism , immigration , multiracialism , and multiculturalism . Some are neo-fascist , neo-Nazi or Third Positionist ; others are politicised around some form of white ethnic nationalism or identity politics , and
1260-544: Is more black-on-white interracial crime than there is white-on-black crime. Taylor claims that police are not biased against blacks or other ethnic groups. He states that research into race differences in criminal behavior is a worthwhile pursuit and suggests that the US immigration policy should consider these differences.

Zhonghua minzu is translated as "Chinese nation", "Chinese people", "Chinese ethnicity" and "Chinese race". Some critics have referred to Chinese nationalism as "racial nationalism". Some argue that the term Zhonghua minzu is intended to justify the Han race (汉族 or 汉民族) based " assimilationist " policy. Jamil Anderlini, an editor for

One case of a well known opponent of non-European immigration to New Zealand is that of white supremacist Lionel Terry who, after traveling widely to South Africa, British Columbia and finally New Zealand and publishing a book highly critical of capitalism and Asian immigration, shot and killed an elderly Chinese immigrant in Wellington . Terry was convicted of murder in 1905 and sentenced to death, but

1596-499: Is the main ideology of maintaining the system. Many modern Korean nationalists deny the connection to "race" by limiting the meaning of minjok to the meanings of "nation", "people" and " ethnic group ", because minjok (민족, lit: "folk") and injong (인종, lit: race) are distinct concepts in Korean language . However, many non-Korean observers actually recognize minjok as meaning of "race" because "Korean minjok " (한민족 or 조선민족)

Once South Africa's status as a republic was attained, Hendrik Verwoerd called for improved relations and greater accord between the two groups. He claimed that the only difference now was between those who supported apartheid and those who stood in opposition to it. The ethnic divide would no longer be between white Afrikaans-speakers and English-speakers, but rather White and Black South Africans. Most Afrikaners supported

The ultimate goal of the National Party
2352-917: The first elections following the Federation of Australia in 1901, was formed by the Protectionist Party with the support of the Australian Labor Party (ALP). The support of the Labor Party was contingent upon restricting non-white immigration, reflecting the attitudes of the Australian Workers' Union and other labor organizations at the time, upon whose support the Labor Party was founded. The first Parliament of Australia quickly moved to restrict immigration to maintain Australia's "British character", passing
2436-421: The one-drop rule . Since the second half of the 20th century, attempts to categorize humans by race have become increasingly seen as largely pseudoscientific.

The Nazis, because of this, declared Slavs to be Untermenschen . Hitler described Slavs as "a mass of born slaves who feel the need of a master". Hitler declared that because Slavs were subhumans that the Geneva Conventions were not applicable to them, and German soldiers in World War II were thus permitted to ignore

According to Brian Reynolds Myers , racial nationalism in North Korea
3108-672: The Geneva Conventions in regard to Slavs. Hitler called Slavs "a rabbit family" meaning they were intrinsically idle and disorganized. Nazi Germany's propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels had media speak of Slavs as primitive animals who were from the Siberian tundra who were like a "dark wave of filth". The Nazi notion of Slavs being inferior was part of the agenda for creating Lebensraum ("living space") for Germans and other Germanic people in Central and Eastern Europe that

The creation of this group was able to instill fear in African Americans while, in some cases, filling white Americans with pride in their race and reassurance in the fact that they will stay 'on top'.

Leonard Zeskind has chronicled the movement in his book Blood and Politics , in which he argues that it has moved from the "margins to the mainstream". During the 1980s the United States also saw an increase in the number of esoteric subcultures within white nationalism. According to Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke , these movements cover

White nationalist definitions of race are derived from the fallacy of racial essentialism, which presumes that people can be meaningfully categorized into different races by biology or appearance.

The second KKK was founded in Atlanta, Georgia , in 1915 and, starting in 1921, it adopted a modern business system of recruiting. The organization grew rapidly nationwide at a time of prosperity. Reflecting the social tensions of urban industrialization and vastly increased immigration, its membership grew most rapidly in cities and spread out of
