Ninth American Renaissance Conference (2010)

Defending the West

February 19–21, 2010, Herndon, Virginia, near Dulles International Airport

Ours is an era of fear and self-censorship. Virtually no whites anywhere are willing to break taboos about racial differences in IQ, the costs of “diversity,” or the challenges of non-white immigration.

We are different. We believe these are vital questions.

At this conference you will hear some of the most courageous academics, journalists, and political figures of our time discuss the forces that will determine our future. This will be a remarkable group of speakers and guests — undeceived, outspoken, and committed to the defense of Western Civilization.

Please join us for what is sure to be an extraordinary weekend. Register today on-line for the 9th biennial American Renaissance Conference, to be held February 19 through February 21 in Herndon, Virginia (near Washington, D.C.).

Craig Bodeker — “A Conversation About Race: a One-Year Retrospective.” Mr. Bodeker is a filmmaker, whose A Conversation About Race has created a sensation among both race realists and the general public. A review of the film appeared in the February 2009 issue of American Renaissance.
