In Defense of the White Race

Some white people are feeling put upon these days. These are folks who resent being told that theirs is not, in fact, a superior race, especially when they have scientific facts to prove that it is.

They are meeting this weekend in Herndon, Virginia, an exurb of Washington, D.C., to listen to experts on the issue.

Herndon, by the way, is not just conveniently located near Dulles Airport. From 2005 to 2007 it was the site of concerted opposition to a proposal to open a job center for immigrant laborers which drew groups like the Minutemen to support local organizations like Help Save Herndon.

Here is a roster of the scheduled speakers:

J. Philippe Rushton — “The Heritability of World IQ Differences.” Prof. Rushton teaches at the University of Western Ontario, and is the world’s foremost scholar of racial differences. He is the author of many books and articles, most notably, Race, Evolution and Behavior.
