Muuch of the national debate over racism in the aftermath of last months mass murder in Charleston, S.C., has focused on the South and its strange and sometimes jarring nostalgia for the Confederacy. And yet tucked away in the Pacific Northwest of the United States is a vicious group that most people have never heard of but the nations most virulent online racists know well (among them, accused South Carolina murderer Dylann Roof, who wrote about the group in his now-infamous manifesto).
The group is called the Northwest Front and its final solution to the race "problem," if you will, is to expel non-white people from the Pacific Northwest and to establish a mono-racial republic there.
Racism knows no region, its safe to say. While the Pacific Northwest can abstain from the debate on the removal of traitorous colors from the Capitol groundsOregon was the last state in the Union before the Civil Wars outbreak, after allthe region bears a racial legacy tinted by an ignorance, a decades-old vision of minority-free lands, as stark as any in the United States.

Washington State: Black or African American: 3.6%
Oregon: Black or African American: 1.7%
What the hell are these people complaining about?
Oregon was founded on white supremacist principles.
The fool from the politico, all smug in his NYC office, does not know, that one of the most traveled trails westward across the land, ends in Oregon City, near Portland.
The fool from politico does not know, that most of the ‘drivers’ among the wagon trains of settlers, were former Confederate soldiers, who themselves later settled within the Oregon territory. A remnant is actual Southern American cuisine.
So, if there be racism, it is not from a modern day organization, but from the heritage of families of many years before the turn of the last century. I was not witness to any such thing, in my years as a resident in Portland.
Either you do not know any recent African immigrants or you only know the islamo/Somali types.
The vast majority of African immigrants that I know are very good people and very good Americans, Somalis excluded.
For folks that supposedly don’t like racism, the Left is really obsessed with inciting it at the drop of a hat - for them, everyday is graduation day at a large college and lots of hats hit the floor....
So you are blaming Southerners for racism in Oregon?
The African immigrants I know think American blacks are a joke. And want nothing to do with them.
The entire article is a lie.
You’ll find the America’s worst racists in places like Washington DC, and Chicago, and St. Louis ...
AMERICA’S WORST RACISTS ARE NOT “WHITE”!!!
I live in Oregon, lived in Washington too, this is a hit piece. The democrats run both states and have for decades, why don’t they clean the place up?
BTW, I sell real estate in Oregon and I have seen in some neighborhood C,C and R’s, (conditions, covenants and restrictions) “no Negroes allowed in this neighborhood”!
Excellent and well researched post. Kudos!
Dear ilove,
Did I *blame* anybody, in what I wrote?
I stated *fact*, that the ‘drivers’ were former Confederate soldiers. Now, what THEY had inside their little heads, I do not know, nor do I pretend to know.
The pinhead at politico, did not do due diligence in his research, if any, for the article, making HIM the racist.
