This is what the lefist Southern Poverty Law Center says about VDare and Project USA. Like Cannon, the SPLC can find no problem with La Raza.

V-DARE
www.vdare.com

V-DARE — shorthand for Virginia Dare, the first English child to be born in what is now the United States — is a web site run by a "coalition" whose most prominent member is Peter Brimelow.

Brimelow, a leading anti-immigration activist and author of Alien Nation, argues that America is historically a predominantly white nation, and that Americans have a right to demand that it remain that way.

A past columnist for the conservative National Review, Brimelow says he once considered adding a fictional end to his Alien Nation, a nonfiction critique of immigration, about the last white family to leave Los Angeles.

V-DARE posts anti-immigration articles by Brimelow's twin brother John; right-wing columnists like Paul Craig Roberts and Joseph Fallon (Brimelow's main researcher on Alien Nation); and defenders of The Bell Curve — a controversial book arguing that whites are more intelligent than blacks — like Steve Sailer.

Both Brimelow and Fallon have defended Jared Taylor, who edits the racist American Renaissance magazine. Taylor's deputy, James Lubinskas, has returned the favor by writing for V-DARE.

Brimelow has close ties to several other leaders on the anti-immigration scene, among them John Vinson of the American Immigration Control Foundation, Llewellyn Rockwell and Jeffrey Tucker of the Ludwig von Mises Institute, and John H. Tanton of the Federation for American Immigration Reform.

ProjectUSA
Long Island City, N.Y.
www.ProjectUSA.org

Started in 1997 by Craig Nelsen, ProjectUSA runs a web site, publishes an E-zine and a regular magazine, and claims more than 3,000 members.

The group says it is concerned only with immigration numbers, not race or ethnicity. But several of its arguments seem to belie that.

"In addition to the environmental degradation with which current immigration policy is saddling our children," ProjectUSA warns on its web site, "we believe there is a very strong possibility that present policy will lead to a balkanized America of hostile and competing ethnic groups."

Nelsen's group also has put up billboards that have drawn harsh criticism, including one in New York City showing a white boy and the words, "Immigration is doubling U.S. population in my lifetime. (Please don't do this to us Congress)."

In comments adjoining a photo of the billboard, ProjectUSA's web site offers up the following comments: "Stop immigration! Why anti-racism is turning us into cockroaches." Then it adds: "The 'white kid' billboard was the one that really roasted their ass."

Amid cries of racism, the billboard was ordered down within days for lack of a proper permit — a move that brought a suit from Nelsen against the city.
