ELIZABETH WRIGHT, ROT IN HELL!

Elizabeth Wright

When we do a “Rot in Hell” in our sidebar that pretty much means that when we take it down after a week, that’s the end of it. But since the neo-Nazis decided they were going to be pissed about this one and blast it all over the place, we thought that it would be good to keep it around here too. So here is our sendoff to a truly pathetic woman as it appeared in our sidebar, preserved for the ages.

 

ELIZABETH WRIGHT
CALLING HER A ‘SELLOUT’ WOULD BE CHARITABLE
d. 2011
How bad was Elizabeth Wright? She was a black woman, and we heard of her death via American Renaissance, complete with tribute to her written by Jared Taylor! Wright was one of those utterly despicable black conservatives that didn’t just cover for white racism, she was a total apologist for white supremacists. In 1985, she started publishing the newsletter Issues & Views, and although she had this mantra that it “was derived from the wisdom of earlier generations of American blacks, like Booker T. Washington, who attempted to steer their people towards greater economic self-reliance,” but to her that meant being conciliatory and a segregationist in many respects. She was no fan of multiculturalism, but that didn’t stop her from defending neo-Confederacy. She was also a supporter of Holocaust deniers David Irving and Ernst Zundel while they were in jail, railed against the Civil Rights Act as “forced integration”, supported the stunt being promoted by white supremacists that the Republican Party focus only on reaching out to white voters and not anyone else and also had time to cry about the American Renaissance Conference being shut down in Charlotte, NC this year (we didn’t even know she had written about that until we started writing this). Elizabeth Wright lived in New York City, which is probably why she made herself such a shut in. There were never many pictures of her, and DLJ did meet her once at a Black Conservative conference in 1995 in Washington DC, the week of the OJ Verdict (and a week before the Million Man March), and that’s just as well. As we write this, the news has spread, but only to other white supremacist blogs (UPDATE: …whom, we are happy to say, are none too pleased about our little sendoff here). Seriously, if your legacy as a person of color has people who downright despise black people mourning your death as a colleague, it is probably pretty wise to hide your face. This woman will not be missed.

Wow. Robert Moore, Joey Vento and now Elizabeth Wright. Three Rot in Hells in one week. Pop the champagne and keep ’em comin’! The sooner these scumbags shuffle off this mortal coil, the better for the rest of us!
