Former Senator Byrd once led a hate group too. It doesn't matter to me what someone once did. I want to know what they are doing now.

the League of the South, a neo-Confederate group that advocates for a second Southern secession and a society dominated by “European Americans.”
The league believes the “godly” nation it wants to form should be run by an “Anglo-Celtic” elite that would establish a Christian theocratic state and politically dominate blacks and other minorities. The group is also against interracial marriage, believes antebellum slavery is God-ordained, and wants a hierarchical society made up of superiors, equals and inferiors.

The League of the South is a neo-Confederate group that advocates for a second Southern secession and a society dominated by “European Americans.” The league believes the “godly” nation it wants to form should be run by an “Anglo-Celtic” (read: white) elite that would establish a Christian theocratic state and politically dominate blacks and other minorities. Originally founded by a group that included many Southern university professors, the group lost its Ph.D.s as it became more explicitly racist. The league denounces the federal government and northern and coastal states as part of “the Empire,” a materialist and anti-religious society.

The Truth about the Southern Poverty Law Center
Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center have earned quite a reputation for fighting “hate”. Some groups that have been labeled by the SPLC as “hate groups” are indeed just that. However; there are just as many groups that have been labeled as “hate groups” by the SPLC that aren’t. Like the ADL, the SPLC has branched out to include many conservative and Southern heritage groups in the “hate” category. We hope that you the reader will thoroughly utilize the following links to educate yourself about the Southern Poverty Law Center.
