It might have been but another in the long line of incidents of campus racism that pop up every few years around the country.

Chalk those incidents up to colorblind liberalism. Heimbach is entirely sincere, and definitely not a liberal. White Students Under Siege?

Dan Poole Update: On the day this blog was posted, the organization’s founders dis­solved the Cen­ter for the Advance­ment of Occi­den­tal Cul­ture as a lim­ited lia­bil­ity corporation. Two white suprema­cists, Dan Poole and Kyle Bris­tow, have founded a new group, the Cen­ter for the Advance­ment of Occi­den­tal Cul­ture (CAOC) in Michi­gan. Poole, a recent col­lege grad­u­ate, and Bris­tow, an attor­ney, have both pre­vi­ously been active in racist cir­cles. Poole is the exec­u­tive direc­tor of CAOC and Bris­tow will be the organization’s chief legal officer.
