American Renaissance publisher Jared Taylor will come to campus Towson University on October 2 to address the “White Student Union,” formed by Youth for Western Civilization blogger Matthew Heimbach.
“Anytime there’s something controversial going on, you know I’ll be there,” Heimbach told the Southern Nationalist Network on July 7. Staying true to his words, Heimbach created the White Student Union this school year. The group’s purpose would be to provide a “positive view of white identity.”
YWC has been relatively inactive as a national organization since its founder Kevin DeAnna stepped down as president of the group in February to work for WorldNetDaily. Its website has been down since Heimbach wrote a blog featuring an Apartheid-era pamphlet that urged people to “Hang Nelson Mandela and all ANC terrorists.” The blog, picked up by Mother Jones and the Huffington Post, subsequently led to an embarrassing moment at the last Conservative Political Action Conference, after making a big splash in earlier years.
