Race relations expert Jared Taylor will address students at Texas A&M on Tuesday, April 1 at 8:30 PM.

His speech is titled "Is Diversity a Strength or Weakness?" and will explore what current racial and demographic trends mean for the United States.

The speech will be characterized by frank and open discussion of subjects rarely addressed in an academic setting: the costs of diversity, the threat multiculturalism poses to free speech and democratic institutions, and the implications of the rapidly changing populations of the nations of the West.

The speech will be held in Rudder Room 601 and is sponsored by Aggie Independents.

A similar speech by Mr. Taylor, scheduled for Michigan State University, was canceled earlier this month after complaints about the controversial nature of the subject.

Mr. Taylor is the editor of American Renaissance, a monthly publication that focuses on race and immigration.

Noone is an accident of birth and neither is our color, whatever it may be, nor our nationality....We were specifically designed by God, so we may look different, but were designed by the same loving Creator and are equally loved by Him. I think sometimes we need to be reminded of that.

can someone please tell me what the NAACP is and oh go ahead and let me know what LULAC is as well. I beginning to believe, white folks are really not the racists ones but these previous mentioned organizations have to have a reason to be in existence, so they keep racism alive in America.

"Be proud to be WHITE!!!! I AM!!!" Why should anyone be proud of an accident of birth? I'm proud to be well enough educated and tolerant enough to reject stupid hateful arguments based on where somebody was born or what their skin color is or where their family came from or which religion they were dunked or sprinkled or tatooed in, no matter who makes them.
