White (people) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Growing numbers of White nationalist groups in the United States, however, have now accepted Southern Europeans and Eastern European peoples as White, considering that the blonde-hair and blue-eyed type in the Eastern European, northern Spanish and the northern Italian region especially is proportionally large.
Among some more exclusionist White nationalist groups, a serious ideological point is the bestowing of the "non-White" label upon ethnic European peoples of Southern European and Eastern European (Slavic) descent.
This is demonstrated in the written requirements for membership in White nationalist organizations such as the Nationalb> Alliance.

Before the elections are held, a census is to be conducted in preparation for voter registration, constituencies must be delimited, and a draft constitution is to be put to a referendum.

Whites - encyclopedia article about Whites.

This is despite the fact that for the purposes of statistics, all the aforementioned are always categorised as white by US government agencies and the U.S. census, and even though some of the people in these groups may look very similar to Southern Europeans.
This is demonstrated in the written requirements for membership in white-supremacist organizations such as the Nationalb> Alliance.
Although it is most prevalent in casual conversation, the term white is increasingly rare in academic and formal discussions of racial demographics, but it is still often used in discussions of racial attitudes, particularly in the humanities, and in fields such as Africanb> American studies (Black studies), critical race theory and whiteness studies.

Jensen July 26, 2001 LONG VERSION

Booker T. Washington gained nationalb> fame for his "Atlanta Compromise" of 1895, whereby Africanb> Americans would concentrate on making themselves more productive and efficient, in order to first modernize their communities and themselves, while underplaying political confrontations or assertions of equal rights.
The census itself became a tool for identifying backward localities that most needed modernization, such as the inner city, the Southb>, Cuba, and the Philippines.
The problem is that it is very difficult indeed to find any Social Darwinism among political, legal or business leaders.
