National Association for the Advancement of White People

The National Association for the Advancement of White People is a white nationalist organization in the United States which primarily advocates racial segregation. It was originally incorporated on December 14, 1953 in Delaware by Bryant Bowles. The following year an article was written on the organization by Time magazine. The organization was founded to support policies such as segregation of races, and it has sent speakers around the country. In September 1955, the Deputy Attorney General of Delaware took action to revoke the corporate charter of the NAAWP.
The organization was rekindled in 1980 by former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke. Its name can be taken to counter that of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The group advocates white separatism as opposed to white supremacy. It was headquartered in Metairie in unincorporated Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, a suburb of New Orleans.
The organization's views included opposition to affirmative action programs and a strong law and order stance, such as favoring the death penalty and three strikes laws. Its official slogan is: "Equal Rights For All — Special Privileges For None." The slogan was presumably taken from the seventh of the Ocala Demands of the United States Populist (or People's) Party of 1890.
In the 1990s, Ronald Edmiston founded a chapter of the NAAWP in Hawaii and was one of the first to speak out against the Hawaiian sovereignty movement as well as state and federal policies and practices favoring Native Hawaiians.[1] Edmiston saw whites in Hawaii's society as disproportionately the victims of discrimination and crime.[2] The chapter is now defunct.
