James L. Hart
James Lee Hart (also known as John Hart, born February 23, 1944) is a white supremacist, segregationist activist and political candidate in Buchanan, Tennessee. Beliefs Hart describes himself as an advocate of eugenics, saying that the United States should be repopulated with members of the "favored races" of Europe and Asia and not the "less-favored races" of Africa. Without such an ethnic cleansing, he argues, "we are now in danger of degenerating back to the level of the subhuman primate once again." In a campaign brochure, he wrote: "We whites don’t hold minorities back. The minorities hold us back and destroy the civilizations that we create whether in Zimbabwe or Detroit." Hart has cited the suicide of his 29-year-old son in 2001 as motivation for his political efforts. Political campaigns Hart ran for Congress in 2002 as an independent, winning 2.55% of the vote. But he first gained notice in 2004 when he ran as a Republican for the House of Representatives for Ten ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

American Eugenicists
Eugenics, the set of beliefs and practices which aims at improving the genetic quality of the human population, played a significant role in the history and culture of the United States from the late 19th century into the mid-20th century. The cause became increasingly promoted by intellectuals of the Progressive Era. While ostensibly about improving genetic quality, it has been argued that eugenics was more about preserving the position of the dominant groups in the population. Scholarly research has determined that people who found themselves targets of the eugenics movement were those who were seen as unfit for society—the poor, the disabled, the mentally ill, and specific communities of color—and a disproportionate number of those who fell victim to eugenicists' sterilization initiatives were women who were identified as African American, Hispanic, or Native American. As a result, the United States' eugenics movement is now generally associated with racist and nativi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Segregationist
Racial segregation is the systematic separation of people into racial or other ethnic groups in daily life. Racial segregation can amount to the international crime of apartheid and a crime against humanity under the Statute of the International Criminal Court. Segregation can involve the spatial separation of the races, and mandatory use of different institutions, such as schools and hospitals by people of different races. Specifically, it may be applied to activities such as eating in restaurants, drinking from water fountains, using public toilets, attending schools, going to films, riding buses, renting or purchasing homes or renting hotel rooms. In addition, segregation often allows close contact between members of different racial or ethnic groups in hierarchical situations, such as allowing a person of one race to work as a servant for a member of another race. Segregation is defined by the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance as "the act by which a (n ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
