About Us
About the Campaign
A Richer Life is a public awareness campaign developed by the National Fair Housing Alliance, dedicated to the creation and sustenance of diverse communities throughout the nation.
Living in integrated communities means having neighbors from all walks of life, from different ethnic backgrounds and of various beliefs, providing the opportunity for deeper and more varied experiences that will prepare us and our children for the mix of people that makes up this great country and for the interactions of the global economy. We believe it is the right of us all to live in healthy, diverse communities and that we all deserve to benefit from the richer life they bring.
State Farm is the major underwriter of the A Richer Life campaign and activities commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Fair Housing Act. Other sponsors include: Fannie Mae, State Farm Bank, Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, Ocwen Financial Corporation, PMI Mortgage Insurance Company, Freddie Mac, Saxon Mortgage Services, Inc., MetLife Auto & Home, Wachovia Corporation, and H&R Block.

I have brown neighbors. Wonder if A RICHER LIFE would be willing to pay for the home security system I had installed. Our neighbors (multicultural) are the kind who’d steal the paint off the walls if they could. Yes, we do have more than valid reasons for how we see them.
Forget the flowery language. What they want is black Section 8 criminals in white neighborhoods.
Click on the original article, then on the ‘Take Action’ link on the upper left. The Statement of Support is LOL — I would have thought it tongue and cheek if it had been sent by a friend or shown up as an Amren post.
Having lived in a vibrant, diverse community in a large city while in our 20’s, my husband and I were thrilled to move to the boring white suburbs, where we are raising our kids and have no intention of moving.
I read somewhere that typical neighborhoods in this country are only 4% more integrated than they were in 1950. Sounds about right.
BTW, cancel your State Farm if you haven’t already done so and tell them why. AAA and Farmer’s Insurance are both excellent.

Let’s check out where the CEOs, BOD members, Executive Vice-Presidents and other important officials with these companies live. Probably very few of them live in such rich, diverse, rewarding areas.
The global economy is drying up, and Whites need to be prepared not to get along with all the colorful foreigners, but to get along without them. They, of course, cannot get along without us, but that’s not going to be our problem any more.
I look forward to the smell of curry, the wailing of the Muslim call to prayer, automobiles parked in front yards, and huddling in fear in my home with my soon to be illegal handgun.
“We believe it is the right of us all to live in healthy, diverse communities and that we all deserve to benefit from the richer life they bring.”
This is Double Speak. Who do they think they are fooling?
Sounds like someone’s paying “black”mail. Well, you have to laugh your way through this tragedy sometimes.
“prepare your children for the global community they will inhabit … give us all a richer life.”
(But, wait)Question: Is there a similar program being promoted in China, India, Uganda, Nigeria?
No? Why NOT???
“Living in integrated communities means having neighbors from all walks of life, from different ethnic backgrounds and of various beliefs, providing the opportunity for deeper and more varied experiences”
How anyone can believe that diversity of various beliefs can result in harmony is beyond comprehension. More proof that liberalism is a mental illness characterized by an inability to see reality.
Aaaahhh, the benefits of diversity. What the heck are they? I don’t see any and I haven’t been able to find one soul who can tell what they are either.
Like Dorothy, the answer was always right in front of me. For sane and lucid whites, there are no benefits of diversity. Not one.
What is this, some sort of joke? That organization is just a front for Section 8 rabble to move into your neighborhood.
Maybe they think it is everybody’s right to live in a “diverse” neighborhood and to enjoy all the wonderful benefits thereof, but I prefer to stick with my own kind, thank you.
This will be a MANDATE and strickly enforced by the out of control government we now have. Many of us WN’s have been saying this for years on end. THEY will mandate interracial marriages, interracial neighborhoods and even move them INTO your home if need be. Wait and see.
No thanks I’ll pass, why do we have to have organizations to push diversity anyway? If it is really so great want we all seek it out?

Comment:
Myself, I don’t need their preaching. I learned about diversity first hand. I lived for 16 years in a heavily integrated community, and working in a similar environment. Both were chaos. I ended up being practically the only one who was keeping it integrated (and my contribution to this end was plainly not appreciated). In other words, I was one of the last whites out.
It was sheer hell watching the neighborhood crumble and deteriorate around me with all that rich “diversity”, but quite an educational experience which I’ll never forget, and after countless bad experiences I’m truly lucky to be still alive. That wised me up. I started as a naive and trusting young liberal, with good will to all, but ended as something else. I became a hardened, cynical right-winger who had been through mill. Liberal propaganda no longer worked on me. Like everyone else who can, I got out as soon as I could afford it, in the nick of time, and that probably saved my life. Being so much the wiser now, I would NEVER go back there again. I wouldn’t even ride through the neighborhood where I once lived. (And I am not exaggerating!)
Question:
In other words, do I have a right to live among people who are not like me and don’t want me around; but I do not have a right to live among others like myself? And do others have a right to live next to me, but I do NOT have a right NOT to live next to them?
Please clarify. All this diversity stuff is VERY confusing!
“We believe it is the right of us all to live in healthy, diverse communities and that we all deserve to benefit from the richer life they bring.”
——————————————-
In fact, it already has been done. There was, for example, a Harvard study done not long ago (featured here on Amren) establishing the fact that Diversity decreases mutual trust and interaction and causes people to withdraw into themselves.
Still, we get this endless propaganda for Diversity, despite all of the facts to the contrary.
I have an idea, why don’t we “integrate” liberal whites into the ghettos? They will be richer for the experience, of course.
“We believe it is the right of us all to live in healthy, diverse communities”
I should also have the right to live amongst my own kind. Somehow, though, that doesn’t appear in State Farm’s Insurance policy.
A better article would be, “Live Around That Can Actually Afford To Live In The Houses They Have”. I get along just fine with my Chinese, Japanese, Hindu and Jewish neighbors.
However, there’s something just not quite right about the blacks that sit home all day or work low-end factory jobs while living in $500K homes.
When I lived in an all-white neighborhood I was all for diversity. Then I joined the military and experienced black culture up close and personal. That experience led me to run from diversity as quick as I could (at least when blacks are concerned).
But, to their credit, blacks never hector and badger each other to be more “tolerant,” “multicultural” or to “respect diversity.”
At least they were helpful enough to list the companies engaged in this anti-white thought control. Now we can be sure to NEVER give these dorks our business.

Oh, please, may I tell a joke?
A white guy and a black guy lived next door to each other. The black guy walks over to the white guy and says: I’m better than you are because I have a swimming pool. The white guy says: I have a pool. The black guy says I have a Cadillac (big screen tv etc) finally the black guy says: you know why I am better than you are? Cuz I don’t have black people living next door to me.
I already have non-white neighbors in great abundance. I’d gladly trade them for the bicycle and car stereo that were stolen from me in the last six months.

If any white liberal truly wants “diversity”, why not spare us the empty platitudes and buy a house in the ruins of Detroit or the shantytowns of South Africa?
Well there you go. A list of companies that we should no longer do business with.
Yes indeed! You too can experience all the benefits of diversity by sponsoring a 3rd world family as your neighbor … today! Enjoy the ecstasy of hearing mariachi music from the house across the way as you entertain your in-laws and old uncle Ted. Marvel at the landscape as 8-10 junk cars line the street in front of your new neighbor’s house… hopefully impeding entry/exit to your house. But hey, you’re tolerant, enlightened… What’s a little inconvenience in the name of diversity? Besides, your new neighbors are so thankful to be here and can’t wait to adapt the ways of their new land. That’s not 15 people living in a single family home, they’re just having a sleep-over! And yes, that’s right, they can afford a $25,000 car AND qualify for Food Stamps. American tolerance is such a wonderful thing! Don’t mind the maggots…
Yes, I’ve heard their condescending PSA’s on local radio for many months now, maybe a year.
As I recall, the announcer presents himself as a “wise Latino”, and presumably we should thank him for freeing us from the ridiculous notion that you and I can get along perfectly well without the “enrichment” of people with different (and unattractive) facial features, different (and unattractive) hair textures, and really different crime rates (and I don’t mean in a good way).
Land sakes!—what would we benighted crackers do without the guidance of our “betters”? The mind reels…
You’ve got to wonder if any of the people who spout this nonsense have actually ever lived in a “diverse community”.
We’ve lived in our house for 42 years and watched our neighborhood go from all white to 50% white. Our community is now a colder more alienated place. We no longer know who is living on our street. We used to socialize with our adjacent neighbors but now we socialize only with the white ones along the street. For houses further away I only exchange pleasantries and hellos with whites. There is more crime in our district. Bus drivers are behind protective shields. There is a policeman posted in the high school. There are more security guards at the mall. You don’t see women going for a walk in the dusk hours. There is no sense of community around here.
“Encourage and accept diversity in your neighborhood and community. It will promote a greater sense of engagement, better prepare your children for the global community they will inhabit … give us all a richer life.”
We’ll have greater engagement all right with diversity in our neighborhoods. It’s called civil conflict, and it’s coming soon to a neighborhood near you. But I doubt we will have a “richer” life. It will be more like a life fighting for survival. I don’t keep saying that, because I desire it, but because the facts are staring me right in the face.
I just spent an hour getting current on the latest economic news, and I can’t help but wonder how anybody can still devote time to social engineering and promoting their scatter-brained dreams of a rainbow utopia when even Bill O’Reilly is saying we’re headed for an earth shattering crash. He’s usually very reserved about doom and gloom economic news, because he believes a negative opinion could hurt consumer spending.
Gerald Celente is more adamant than ever that we’re finished; Pat Buchanan believes the same, but clouds his opinions with “it’s possible we could….;” Nial Ferguson from Canada is still saying “We will see blood.” In fact, there are too many experts to list who are BASICALLY saying the same thing, including Dick Morris on Fox News tonight.
Oh, yes, here’s Peter Schiff’s most current assessment, along with a couple others. Too, get a load of what Alan Keyes believes.

No doubt all those people banging their gums are pushing for diversity in other people’s neighborhoods and handpicking a couple of tokens for their own. If they are so all fired up about diversity then why don’t they just move to a “diverse” neighborhood and leave the rest of us alone?
What a load of smelly bull these executives at these mainly white owned & operated corporations feel pressured (you know it!) into pretending agreement to. First of all, by “diversity” they mean, of course, pigmentation diversity - the only kind that seems to count. It’s not enough that white people are a very diverse lot in themselves intellectually, culturally, etc.
How many of these high up executives in these sponsoring corporations live in very “diverse” neighborhoods? I bet they like their safe, gated, non-diverse communities for their families just fine. And gee, how come so many of them don’t send their kids to public schools that just reeks of “diversity”? This organization should talk to President Obama to inform him of the wonders of diversity that their kids are missing out on.
The Doublespeak in this article is incredible:
“We believe it is the right of us all to live in healthy, diverse communities and that we all deserve to benefit from the richer life they bring.” It’s obvious that what they mean by this is it’s the *duty* of us all to live in these kinds of “communities,” the “healthy, diverse” oxymoron notwithstanding. Naturally, there’s no mention of the right of whites to live with our own kind.
What makes this whole article so laughable is that there are hundreds of “diverse” communities around right now, but they are communities in name only. A recent study concluded that people who live in “diverse communities” feel alienated, insecure, afraid and reluctant to associate with their neighbors. The whole “community” suffers as a result. Crime soars and the fabric of society disintegrates. By contrast, ethnically homogeneous communities exhibit stability, trust and a high degree of participation in society by the citizens.
Looking at the list of sponsors, I can’t help but be impressed by the number of financial institutions that are behind this - all corporate whores par excellence, none of whom care the least about preserving the society that birthed them. Looks like a good list of firms to boycott.
The article gets to the heart of the matter when it names the sponsors.
Finance, investors, land speculators and banking want more Third World mouths to feed and heads to shelter. Consumption and money growth is the only theme. It’s simple greed. They must be stopped.

Does anyone else notice that nowhere, in articles such as this, are those mythical “benefits of diversity” ever enumerated?
Even when put on the spot and asked just what those benefits might be, the advocates of diversity NEVER, EVER can answer that question.
“Many of us WN’s have been saying this for years on end.
I agree with you on that, but I think they will approach it more subtlely. They will seek to promote inter-racial marriages and neighborhoods though tax rebates, favored housing and education, promotions, and other such inducements. And many whites will give in to the lure and bite the bait. For obvious reasons, government always prefers using the carrot rather than the stick. It’s just easier that way.
It’s not here yet. But it’s coming.
“Fair housing” means being allowed to CHOOSE your neighbors. It means freedom of association. It means having the power to say “yes” or “no” to who your children will associate with, play with and be neighbors with. This is tyranny, not fairness.
I clicked on the tab labeled “The Importance of Diversity” and I laughed so hard at what I saw that again I’m wondering if this is really some parody by a fellow Amrenner.
Diversity stimulates local economic growth
Right. That’s why our most economically productive cities are Detroit, Newark, Memphis, and East St. Louis. If increasing welfare payments in your neighborhood is your idea of economic growth, you’ll love diversity.
Diversity produces culturally vibrant communities
I live in one of those communities. Sometimes my windows vibrate from the Mestizos’ mariachi music. Sometimes they vibrate from the blacks’ rap music. Sometimes they just vibrate from some argument going on. I’d much rather have no vibrancy so I can listen to my classical music. Then there’s the apparently genetically fixed tendency of Mestizos to park their monster trucks on their lawns. Or sometimes even on my lawn (on the grass strip between the sidewalk and the curb). Another apparently fixed trait of the diversity is their tendency to never put trash in a trash can. Why should they when the street and other people’s yards are a much bigger target? Why oh why don’t rich liberal whites avail themselves of this diversity? I’d be happy to sell them my house.
Diverse schools enrich the lives of all students and prepare them to thrive in a multicultural world
Oh God this just too hilarious! So why are our majority black and Hispanic schools nearly all academic basket cases? The single life experience most likely to make someone a lifelong member of American Renaissance is attendence (or better yet, teaching) at a diverse school.
Diversity improves access to jobs.
Right. Bringing in 20 million illegal aliens to bust unions and drive down wages did a great deal to help working class Americans get access to jobs. And the H-1b and L-2 programs have displaced a great many middle class Americans from their jobs. When I first started working in a technical field all but one of the technical people at the company I worked for were native born Americans. At my current job I’m one of only two native born Americans in the technical work. We’re outnumbered by both the Chinese and the Indians. They are competent in their work, but there is no question that if they weren’t here some white guys would have the jobs instead. While Korean immigrants do create their own businesses they prefer to hire other Koreans.
Assuming that that web site is not a parody, I wonder — do the creators of that masterpiece really believe what they wrote, or do they really believe they can fool very many people?

It gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling to know that I’m shorting MetLife right now in my brokerage account.
Oh, my family had a pretty colorful life living in Detroit, on Trumbull, until I was 3 years old, when we moved to the suburbs.
My dad saw a black man beating up on a woman, and Dad fired a shot over his head and ran him off.
When my paternal grandmother, who lived in inner-city Detroit, died, all her so-called “friends” looted her apartment and not one of them showed up at her funeral.
I like where I live. Mostly white.
Those were scary economic predictions indeed from ranger. Well worth heeding too. I even sent some of the articles to a friend. Even if they prove wrong, it’s better to have been informed than ignorant. Thank you, ranger.
I constantly fail to understand why you have to “push” something that’s supposed to be so fantastic.
We were the greatest capitalist nation in existence. Why someone hasn’t been able to profit from the untapped greatness of diversity is beyond me.
It bothers me that I don’t remember being constantly inundated with people telling me how great sugar tastes.
“Can you cite one speck of hard evidence of the benefits of “diversity” that we have heard gushed about for years? Evidence of its harm can be seen — written in blood — from Iraq to India, from Serbia to Sudan, from Fiji to the Philippines. It is scary how easily so many people can be brainwashed by sheer repetition of a word.”
I just cancelled my insurance policies with State Farm.
I prefer to live with people of my own color.
everyone should immediately cancel their insurance with state farm forever, and let them know why.

No. You can’t make this stuff up Voter. I lived the same experience in N. Philadelphia. There simply isn’t any way that Whites and Blacks can live together in harmony. Afros have a corrosive effect on anything that they touch. We’re going to end up like the British at Dunkirk with our backs to the sea except that there won’t be any fleet of boats to rescue us. I rode(very quickly) through my old neighborhood once many years ago and it was a Hell hole then. It must be a thousand times worse now.
When they say Fair Housing they mean that you will be forced to put up with the crime brought to you by your new neighbors, and if you complain, you’ll be called racist.
In an Orwellian State you have to read between the lines:
Encourage and accept YOUR REPRESSION & EXTRUSION FROM neighborhood and community. It will promote a greater sense of engagement IN RACIAL SUICIDE, better prepare your children for the global SHARK POOL THAT MIGHT ALSO HATE THEM FOR BEING WHITE which they will inhabit … give all ALIENS a richer life FROM YOUR SAVINGS.
About Us
About the Campaign
A Richer Life is a public DISTORTION campaign developed by the National Fair Housing Alliance, dedicated to the creation and sustenance of INCREASINGLY NON-WHITE communities throughout the nation.
Living in integrated communities means having neighbors from all walks of CRIME, from different ethnic backgrounds and of various beliefs, providing the opportunity for deeper and more VIOLENT experiences that will prepare us and our children for the mix of people that SLOWLY DESTROYS this great country AND IS JUDAEO-CHRISTIAN HERITAGE and for the SUBMISSION TO THE global economy. We believe it is the right of NON-WHITES to live in WHITEY-SUSTAINED communities and that THEY all deserve to benefit from the richer life they bring.

Nothing truly good or desirable requires the relentless support of propaganda and myriad levels of coercion. Yet “diversity” does require those things. Few people need constant prodding to love their children, good books, or good beer. But everyone seems to need unremitting surveillance to appreciate “diversity.”
It’s almost as though most people really don’t want “diversity,” but are supposed to want it, according to some nebulous, mostly-unelected class of camp overseers.
Non-white neighbors? You first, Senator Kennedy.
We do NOT need to import or live with people from other nations and cultures in order to trade with them. We can buy oil from and sell grain to Arabs without having a single Arab living in America. We could buy electronics from Korea and sell them military equipment without ever living next to a Korean. It is stupid. All we need to live in a global economy is to respect other nations cultures and laws, and speak their langauage (or they ours). Saudi Arabia doesn’t make their muslim natives live next door to a Jew, a Chinese, a Belgian, etc. just to sell oil to those people.
After reading the article and comments here, and going to their website as suggested by one commentor and looking at their “Take Action” page, which asks you to copy and paste a canned statement into an email message with your name and email address (why list that when it’s part of your email anyway?), I sent the following text to richerlife@nationalfairhousing.org:
“I want a richer life.
I want to live in a neighborhood that reflects the realities of our society as a whole – a society that is becoming far more varied and diverse. I want the benefits that living in integrated communities brings. I want neighbors from different ethnic backgrounds who can help me appreciate the beauty of diversity and better prepare my children for a future in which they will be part of a truly multicultural world.
I embrace the goal of this richer life for myself and my family and support the work of the National Fair Housing Alliance to promote neighborhood diversity in America.”
Yes, diversity is strength. I think someone named Orwell had something to say about that.
I’ll believe this when all of your corporate sponsor’s CEOs, CFOs, board of directors, etc. move to the ‘hood. I’d like a list of said sponsor’s head honchos race/ethnicity and their neighborhood’s, just for comparison. And how many of these send their kids to public schools, where they can revel in the joys of “diversity” and “multiculturalism” (violence, drugs, sex, etc.)?
Basically, you are asking me to accept MORE crime, MORE poverty, and more RACIAL/ETHNIC/RELIGIOUS TENSION where I live, in exchange for what?
Please, please tell me why is it that we must be taught and experience “multiculturalism (brainwashing)” constantly in a vain effort to “just get along”? You know why? Because I don’t think there is a people on this earth that don’t want to be WITH THEIR OWN KIND and/or JUST LEFT ALONE! (OK, actually, when black persons/families get prosperous enough, a good percentage of them move to WHITE neighborhoods! Does that tell you anything? How about a black person’s propensity to commit murder compared to a white person’s? Go to the FBI’s website and look it up in their Uniform Crime Report.)
I shall keep your list of corporate sponsors in mind the next time I need their services (NOT).
Capitalism requires huge exponentially growing markets. This is ecologically and socially unsustainable of course. All growth comes to end at some point in time. Maximize profits as quick as possible. This is the true mindset behind the diversity propaganda of the real estate industry. It is utterly predatory and destructive to normal human societies and ecosystems. The diversity propaganda is the “humane” face they put on this social and eological cancer.
By the way, the multimillioniare real esate parasites live in lilly white comunities. They should be sent packing to live in Chad or the Sudan so they can enjot the blessings of diversity.
An interesting article on the real effects of diversity in a community.
Harvard political scientist Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone, is very nervous about releasing his new research, and understandably so. His five-year study shows that immigration and ethnic diversity have a devastating short- and medium-term influence on the social capital, fabric of associations, trust, and neighborliness that create and sustain communities. He fears that his work on the surprisingly negative effects of diversity will become part of the immigration debate, even though he finds that in the long run, people do forge new communities and new ties.
Putnam’s study reveals that immigration and diversity not only reduce social capital between ethnic groups, but also within the groups themselves. Trust, even for members of one’s own race, is lower, altruism and community cooperation rarer, friendships fewer. The problem isn’t ethnic conflict or troubled racial relations, but withdrawal and isolation. Putnam writes: “In colloquial language, people living in ethnically diverse settings appear to ‘hunker down’—that is, to pull in like a turtle.”
In the 41 sites Putnam studied in the U.S., he found that the more diverse the neighborhood, the less residents trust neighbors. This proved true in communities large and small, from big cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, and Boston to tiny Yakima, Washington, rural South Dakota, and the mountains of West Virginia. In diverse San Francisco and Los Angeles, about 30 percent of people say that they trust neighbors a lot. In ethnically homogeneous communities in the Dakotas, the figure is 70 percent to 80 percent.
http://www.city-journal.org/html/eon2007-06-25jl.html
So basically what I get out of this quest for cultural richness is that Americans don’t actually HAVE the right to live where they want. Rather, they are herded to diversify neighborhoods through any means available: guilt, finance, welfare programs (which benefit only the minorities), greedy landlords, etc. When the people who are able to relocate to a more homogeneous (safe, comfortable) location and racial one again becomes evident, they start the cycle all over. The law says all races are ALLOWED to lived among other races. It doesn’t say it’s required - although that is certainly only temporary, as it IS implied.
Boycott State Farm. Let them know what they think. Over my dead body will I give in to the One World, diversity-mandating, White-genocide that has infected 97% of all media, corporate output and every day life in this country and all countries in the West. I simply will not give in. This war has got to have an end.
Some people here might want to buy a few shares of stock in the guilty companies then go to shareholder meetings, introduce radical motions, be a pain in the butt, etc. I can’t quite afford this tactic, but I taping a list of the offenders to my wall. State Farm?? Yeah, like an evil, sinister neighbor….
If diversity were such a strength why is it that it’s always the whites who leave and move away from it? If
After 40 years of living in the hellhole known as Memphis TN, I Now live a richer life in the mountains of Virginia. Not much crime , 99.8% white and can sleep with the doors unlocked if I choose to. Memphis now is #2 in violent crime according to the FBI stats. Whoever thought up this program at STATE FARM has lost their friggen mind, and never lived in a diverse culture of mexicans and blacks. Thank God I’m already living a RICHER LIFE, and State Farm just lost another homeowner’s policy.
“We believe it is the right of us all to live in healthy, diverse communities and that we all deserve to benefit from the richer life they bring.”
As long as this “right” does not get written into our constitution…
Do we also have the right to NOT live in a diverse community? That is the real question at stake.
I wonder how long these multicultural elitist fools think they are going to remain ‘elite’, when they are the only white’s left on earth…
I still do not understand what it is about diversity that so many people love. Based on my personal experience as a white kid growing up in the 21st century Bay Area, diversity more often than not fosters conflict. This is not to say that different groups cannot be around one another. I have had many non-white friends throughout the years. This is only to say that forced integration cannot work. The government and diversity organizations cannot force people to love on another. Malcolm X once asserted that “you cannot legislate brotherhood.” Even though I have non-white and white friends, too much diversity makes me suspicious.
State Farm?
Let me guess… they want petty crime to go up so they can raise our rates while the losses still fall within the deductible.
post #52(anonymous) describes an interesting study by Robert Putnam of Harvard that will apparently show diversity in neighborhoods causes people to withdraw from one another. Immigrants factor into this destruction of communities. Who would have the guts to tell Congress this when it considers the amnesty legislation later this year or next?
Check out BOWLING ALONE for the truth on what diversity does for neighbourhoods.
“Whoever thought up this program at STATE FARM has lost their friggen mind”
I beg to differ. After reading sixty comments, I am rather surprised that no one has asked the simple and obvious question:
“Cui Bono?” Who benefits?
Well, let’s see. Judging from that list, the sponsors fall into two categories, roughly: insurance companies, and home finance companies.
The home finance companies want to get as many people into houses as possible, but the only trouble is, whites are already way oversaturated in houses. So, it’s time to bring in the various hues of brown.
And the insurance companies sell to people worried about misfortune—car wrecks, vandalism, burglaries, and arson. All of these go up when swarthy elements move in, thus people purchase more insurance. I’ve heard of McMansion developers building and selling low-end, low-profit apartments at cost, right next to older but still nice neighborhoods. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what’s going on.
There’s one other thing at play here. Pre-emptive inoculation against justice department witch hunts. I’ve noticed a lot of industries increasing the numbers of blacks in their commercials lately. This may merely be the equivalent of a shop owner paying money into a mafia protection racket. These companies may be protecting themselves from diversity lawsuits and accusations of preying on poor helpless minorities by grandstanding members of congress, who are looking to pin the blame for the housing bubble on anyone but themselves.
Rex Kramer:There’s one other thing at play here. Pre-emptive inoculation against justice department witch hunts. I’ve noticed a lot of industries increasing the numbers of blacks in their commercials lately. This may merely be the equivalent of a shop owner paying money into a mafia protection racket. These companies may be protecting themselves from diversity lawsuits and accusations of preying on poor helpless minorities by grandstanding members of congress, who are looking to pin the blame for the housing bubble on anyone but themselves.
I think you hit the nail on the head. The real reason our corporate masters promote affirmative action and diversity is because they want to avoid EEOC and “Fair Housing” lawsuits, and boycotts by Al Sharpton. Basically the CEO, president, and corporate lawyers decided that the benefits of buying off the diversity mongers are high, and the downside costs are low. When a dozen Amerenners cancel their insurance I’m afraid that will never register with corporate headquarters as being due to their advocacy of diversity.
I found Rex Kramer’s analysis of this matter very interesting and perceptive. Well worth thinking about.
Since when should the Government tell you who you have to sell your house to? Do they tell you who you have to sell your car, stereo, or guitar to? No. So why are they on White American Citizens, through HUD, to ensure we sell to Minorities? That’s outrageous.
I have a solution to the MLS of your local Real Estate Broker, and how to get around selling to other than your own people, which would certainly destabilize a Community.
When you are in the Market to sell your home, don’t list with a Real Estate Broker, but rather inform your Brother Lodge members at whatever Fraternal Organization that you belong to, that your house is for sale. Tell them, and only them, about it. That keeps the lid on the availability of the house for sale, to the right type of people.
You can repeat this at any Ethnic or Cultural Club, or Sewing Club, for that matter, but the results would be the same.
“You can repeat this at any Ethnic or Cultural Club, or Sewing Club, for that matter, but the results would be the same.”
Yes, at least it would help. But you can’t guarantee that everyone else in your neighborhood would do the same. Somebody would sell. So that’s the leak in the dyke. Eventually, the ocean will still get through. You’re just delaying the flood.
And if Washington caught on to what you’re doing, I suppose the neighborhood-busters would find some strategy to come in and build section 8 housing, or import a few thousand Sudanese refugees to “enrich” you with their diversity. Somehow, they would find a way. They have all the power of government on their side.
Remember that those now in power, like Obama and Holder (and so many others), are mulattoes. They aren’t looking to create purely “black” neighborhoods. They’re looking to create miscegenated neighborhoods — places that they would feel comfortable in — because that’s what they are. They want your neighborhood to look like THEM, not you. But they don’t want them to look too black either.
I suspect there’s a State Farm internal memo, along the lines of the following:
The Head Actuary has found that we are experiencing substantial claim losses on homeowner policies in minority communities, that we cannot correlate with any other neighborhood characteristic. Since we cannot legally charge different premiums based on ethnic composition, we will be forced to over-charge homeowners in white neighborhoods to cover our losses in minority ones. This will eventually lead our profitable white customers to other insurers with less minority exposure. The long-term future of the company depends on un-stratifying neighborhood compositions to make loss patterns more uniform.
This is a modern-day equivalent of “blockbusting”. In the 1960’s greedy (opportunistic) real estate agents saw a way to make money by instilling (justified) fear of blacks in Detroit. They would help move in a black family and then send postcards to all the (white) residents in the neighborhood which said “A new family has moved into your neighborhood. If you wish to sell your house, please contact me at XXX XXX XXXX”.
